Mr. Miltenberger, I’ll decline that. As I said earlier, we were talking hypothetical from the Member. You’ve already made that commitment, so we will not do that. Mr. Lafferty has already answered that question in a previous response. I’ll get you to introduce your witnesses to the Chamber, please.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I respect your wishes there. Unfortunately, the Minister of ECE spoke the opposite of what the Minister of Finance said, but as this is the Minister of Finance’s budget, I will trust that he will work to ensure that that process is fulfilled through all our discussions on these new and re-profiled dollars and leave it at that.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I see we’re addressing the Collective Agreement between the NWT Teachers’ Association and the Government of the Northwest Territories. I know that we have other agreements that have been in progress, the UNW, the doctors and so on. Is there a reason why those are not coming forward at this time, or will we be expecting those to come forward in the future and when? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. The doctors were dealt with through the regular process. This is being done with a sup, and the UNW, which is currently being ratified, will come forward in the fall through a supplementary appropriation. Thank you.
