Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, as a result of the audit, as well as the recommendation from the 16thAssembly, we moved forward with Building Stronger Families, which was a fundamental change in how we are providing childhood family services here in the Northwest Territories. We have brought forward changes to the legislation that passed late in the life of the last government. Those changes have gone live. I mentioned them here in the House the other day by way of a Minister's statement. We responded directly to a number of the recommendations in the audit immediately as far as accountability, tracking, and reporting. We changed it so that the directors or the CEOs of the health centres are actually accountable under the legislation. They are associate directors, which requires them to provide additional data information for tracking purposes. I do believe, Mr. Chair, that we are going to be providing a briefing to committee on where we are with building stronger families. It is a significant amount of detail. We have come a long way. We are in a five-year implementation plan, and we are halfway. I think we are starting to see some good things happening out there. Still, a long way to go. We are turning that ship. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
