Mr. Speaker, we have moved forward with Health Transformation, so we have the one authority here in the Northwest Territories as well as the Tlicho and Hay River. The senior management complement in the Sahtu is the same and is going to remain the same.
We have a CEO and a number of directors who are providing leadership within the region as well as some manager level jobs moving down. We aren't intending at this point to create any new jobs in that region in the senior management area; however, I will say that I have made a commitment to the people of the Northwest Territories and to the Member and to other Members that I want to support as much as possible training local people for local work. There are a number of those jobs that certainly we can train local people to do; other jobs are going to have some statutory requirements which makes it a bit tough.
In the health and social services system we have moved forward with some training of some local people for CEO roles; well, we're doing it in the Deh Cho, we've done it in Hay River. We're about to go out for staffing for a developmental COO position in the Sahtu and we're hoping to get a local person and train them up so that they can take over the role of the CEO after they have completed their appropriate training. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
