Louis Sebert Thebacha
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, earlier this sitting I tabled the Annual Report on the Activities of the Rental Officer. The Department of Justice has found an error in the document on pages 8 and 20 of the report. The English portion overstated the value of monetary compensation orders in 2017-2018 as $7.3 million instead of the correct number of $1.7 million. This error was made by the department in the completion of the document and not by the rental officer in their submission of the report. With that, Mr. Speaker, pursuant to section 74.2(2) of the Residential Tenancies Act, I wish to table "Annual Report on the Activities of the Rental Officer April 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018." Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Marsi cho, Mr. Speaker. I have two documents to table. The first is a letter from the Native Women's Association NWT that was written to the Honourable Glen Abernethy, Minister of Health and Social Services, and the second is a petition that does not meet all of the guidelines of a petition to be tabled, so I am presenting this as a letter from the Deninu Kue First Nation to the Honourable Minister Abernethy, Department of Health and Social Services, on the Fort Resolution 'Our Great Elders Facility.' Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
