Thank you, Madam Chair. One of the priorities of this unit has been since we’ve brought them over from the Department of Human Resources is to review the existing programs and services they are providing and start putting together a long-term strategic human resource plan for health professionals within the Northwest Territories. That work is still underway and we’re hoping to have a draft strategic human resource plan that we can bring to committee to have a discussion about things that we need to do and things we need to change. There are a number of areas in programs that we have delivered in the past that don’t appear to be providing much value as far as recruitment and retention and it’s time we make some improvements, and I look forward to an opportunity to have further discussion in this particular area and our strategic plan, our human resource strategic plan as we move forward. This unit has been very busy and there’s been a lot of work on what was there and where we need to go and it’s been less than a year.
