Thank you, Minister. It does look promising to fill these positions. I wanted to ask the Minister if any of those positions are difficult to fill. The community of Tulita has been waiting for a social worker for some time and we put the suggestion forward some time ago to the previous Minister if they would be flexible enough to use that position in support of the community as a community wellness worker, some type of worker that would help out with the community issues if we’re unable to fill that social worker. I’ve heard that some of the social workers are doing their jobs designated for one of the communities, but they have to go to another community to do more work there and they’re getting tired. So, I want to know if that flexibility is available to the health boards and to the department to support them in that effort. Thank you.
