Thank you, Mr. Chair. As I’ve mentioned several times, we are working and moving forward on this initiative. We are currently doing a number of back office functions. We’re working on shared procurement, shared IT/IS/IM, we’re looking at the territorial physician pool or the territorial physician model. A number of
these things are well in progress and well on the way.
We have been having discussions with committee. We have been having discussions with our Aboriginal government partners, with the JLC, which is the Joint Leadership Committee, which is the chairs and public administrators of all the authorities, as well as the CEOs on how and what needs to be done to bring us into a territorial system that will meet the needs of our residents.
We will be going to communities and having discussions over the next fiscal year. We will be meeting with leadership across the territory over the next fiscal year and we will be figuring out and working closely with committee, as well, on the direction we will take. But many parts are well in progress for the back office and we will continue to move forward, with support of committee.
