Thank you. One of the key factors is that the staff at Hay River Health and Social Services is under a different union agreement than the GNWT staff. Although the buildings have been transferred under that consolidated program, all the buildings that were at one time ownership of the Health and Social Services Authority in Hay River are now GNWT buildings. So, what has happened is that we need to be able to have a discussion not only with Health and Social Services and Public Works that would be providing the maintenance but also with HR labour relations to ensure that we’re going into an area where there’s another union agreement in place for people providing current services that we do this in a phased approach. For now we’re talking about the hospital; in the future we’ll be phasing in the rest of the buildings that are with Hay River Health and Social Services. Thank you.
