I will take a moment first to just remind all GNWT employees there are quite a number of measures that have been made available to staff for mental wellness. They are available under the "My HR" website. There have been extensive changes made to increase and enhance what is available for all employees, including correctional services employees. Prior to COVID-19, there were efforts under way already between human resources and corrections to start working together to really identify the fact that correction services is a challenged environment for employees and to try to find some solutions going forward. Some of that work has been delayed a little bit with COVID-19, but, really, we are starting to look at what we can do to get back to some of that business and back to doing the things we were under way in. That is certainly one of the areas that I will have to make sure that we are indeed getting back to that important work.
