Madam Chair, I appreciate the Minister sharing views regarding the physician services and a bit of a glimpse of a renewed Integrated Service Model. However, I believe my question was a bit more at a higher level of governance. If I can use the term loosely, board reform or the new landscape of how the delivery of our health care will look in the future, given the fact that we’ve had, as I indicated earlier, a lot of barriers to accountability. These were clearly notified by the Auditor General of Canada, to which I believe does deserve the right lens and the appropriate intervention to make sure that we are as efficient as possible, as the Minister said, with physician services.

I am going to leave that question because I’m assuming we’re going to probably get a very similar response if I ask the question again. So I’ll leave that for another rainy day.

My second component regarding the directorate in terms of governance, is the annual reporting. My question has to do with the timeliness of the reports. We’ve seen, in the past, reporting from the Department of Health and Social Services has been very sparse at times. We have even seen the fact that a lot of the health authorities have been noncompliant. Just for the record, the Financial Administration Act clearly indicates that health authorities are bound by the act to report on an annual basis to show what their performance is to the people of the Northwest Territories.

Can the Minister give the committee here some indication? Because they are part of the directorate, this falls under the responsibility of strategic direction of this area that we are in. Can we get some indication, has this been a focus with the Minister, and can we see improvements in this area this year and for the remainder of the 17thAssembly? Thank you.
