Thank you, Madam Chair. The deputy did describe some of the growth, and some of those areas that are growing in the directorate are in direct response to committee and government priorities such as the anti-poverty. A number of positions, as the deputy indicated, are to address moving forward with the Health Information Act and making sure that people understand and that we have the people in positions. It’s about six positions in the directorate. On average, positions are about $100,000-plus, though $600,000 is pretty much the exact growth in this particular area so I think it correlates nicely.

With respect to the Anti-Poverty Strategy and Framework, the $650,000 is broken out into two different pots: $150,000 to day shelters, and for now it’s $75,000 going to Yellowknife, $75,000 going to Inuvik, and then there’s $500,000, which is a fund available for NGOs, community governments, Aboriginal governments to help them address the five pillars outlined in the Anti-Poverty Framework to reduce poverty in the Northwest Territories. We’re currently working on a process with our stakeholders group, and we’ll certainly be having those discussions with committee on the criteria and how we planned to distribute those dollars in a fair process to combat poverty in the North.
