Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Premier.
Cabinet and GNWT staff travelled to Vancouver during the week of January 28 to 31, 2019, to attend the Association for Mineral Exploration Roundup. Can the Premier provide a list of all NWT Ministers and staff who travelled to Vancouver for the meetings, and:
- Total cost of travel, including transportation (showing air travel by executive versus economy class), accommodations, expenses, and associated allowances;
- Any related contract costs for the trip, particularly costs of conference registration, exhibitor staffing, any fees for consulting services outside those provided by public servants, and any funding by the GNWT Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment of the costs of other NWT representatives attending;
- A description of hospitality events, including catering, speaker, and other costs, and numbers of persons attending; and
- What analysis, if any, has taken place of the value for money of the GNWT participation at this event.
Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.
