Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the medical travel benefits that are provided to GNWT employees, by way of example, are a negotiated benefit to our employees. It determines what they'd get for per diems. They arrange for airfare, accommodations, et cetera, et cetera. We don't pay those as a Department of Health and Social Services. Those are borne by the Government of the Northwest Territories. I believe it's through the Department of Finance and accounted for in the Department of Finance.

These costs are the costs that we're spending on medical travel for individuals who don't have third-party insurance or other coverage. If we were to actually, you know, quantify what the true costs of medical travel costs for residents or for the GNWT is, you would have to factor in what's being spent through Finance on GNWT employees and others.

We do have some sense of that number. The $22.7 million you see here is what we provide through the health system. This $13.6 million is from other revenue, including federal NIHB funds, so they do cover some of the medical travel costs. $1.7 million is funded from the Federal Territorial Health Investment Fund, the THIF and $1.3 million is from supplementary funding, the 2015-16, to mitigate some program shortfalls. Then there's also the GNWT medical travel costs, as well, for GNWT employees. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
