Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Consultation to develop the Sutcliffe Report was actually done fairly comprehensive in my opinion, so it included two rounds of consultation with sports and rec groups and other stakeholders from across the Northwest Territories. The first round of consultations consisted of 17 people in person and telephone interviews with representatives from Municipal and Community Affairs, sports, rec and youth division, territorial and regional sports organizations, the NWT Association of Communities and local government administrators of the NWT.
In addition, interviews with representatives from similar sports and rec divisions in the Yukon and Nunavut took place. The second round of consultations provided stakeholders with an opportunity to review and comment in writing on the set of draft recommendations and proposal developed by the Sutcliffe Group with several submissions that were received from that feedback. Finally, the consultant led an online webinar as well as a one-day policy workshop to support the development of the policy statement on recreation, sport and physical activity for the NWT. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
