I have a Return to Written Question 26-17(5), asked by Mr. Dolynny on March 3, 2015, regarding daycare inspection reports.
Mr. Speaker, I committed to making inspection report information publicly available during the February/March 2015 session. The health and safety of children in the care of licenced child care facilities in the NWT is a top priority of the Department of Education, Culture and Employment. As of mid-May 2015, a summary report of the child daycare licensing inspections that occur after April 1, 2015, will be available to the public on ECE's website. Due to access to information and protection of privacy considerations, inspection reports from prior years will not be included. All licenced programs have been officially informed that all inspections beginning April 1, 2015, will be posted in the daycare and will be available on the ECE website. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
