We don’t anticipate savings through the exercise we are going through. What we’re trying to do is streamline services so we can provide the best results to residents of the Northwest Territories in all communities and regions. That includes having some back office functions where shared activities can be done at a territorial level regardless of the region it happens to be located in. Authorities and boards can work together to get economies of scale. We don’t believe it is going to save us money, but it will give us greater control over future spending because we will be able to get some economies of scale.
