Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions are going to refer to early childhood development programming and infrastructure, keeping on the theme with all the good work that the Children First Society is doing up in Inuvik. I want to ensure that these programs are also provided to our small communities and our other regional centres, as well as here in Yellowknife.

I’m going to refer to the status report of the Auditor General of Canada, and specifically measuring the impact of early childhood education, there were a few things that were mentioned that needed to be taken into account. The department did follow up by creating an early childhood environmental rating scale. However, from that rating scale, the department has not been in a position to revise its early childhood development programming because it has not yet collected sufficient data, according to what this has said. So I’d like to ask the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment what the department has done to date to improve this specific program in the Northwest Territories. Thank you.
