Mahsi, Madam Chair. My questions are related to RNANT/NU, the Registered Nurses Association of the NWT and Nunavut. I am aware that they are a governing body that governs registered nurses or nurse practitioners in the Northwest Territories. That whole body seems to be separate from the whole health department. I know that people before me have filed complaints to them. I think it goes to several other places, too. It could be to the leadership council chairman. It could be going to the department of health, but the majority is funnelled to RNANT/NU.

I even filed a formal complaint for three or four people back in November regarding problems with misdiagnosis, different causes, inappropriate comments to our Dene people. Those were being made in our health centre, but we weren't receiving responses. I asked those other people, too, who filed some back in May of last year, and they said they have never ever once received anything back from anyone to even acknowledge that they received their complaints and stuff like that. I am just wondering: what's the relationship between our health department and this governing body? If you could try to paint me a clear picture of what has happened there, I would appreciate that. Mahsi.
