Thank you, Madam Chair. No further questions, thank you.

Thank you. Members, any questions under the health and social programs? Seeing none. Health and Social Services, health and social programs, infrastructure investment, $7,434,000. Does committee agree?

Thank you, committee. We will now turn to Health and Social Services long term and continuing care on page 38 with information items on page 39. Questions. Member for Great Slave.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, can the Minister of the department tell us where the Stanton legacy building renovations are at and is this the last time that we'll be seeing this item in the budget. Thank you.

Thank you, Member. Minister of Health and Social Services.

Yes, thank you. Renovations at the Stanton Legacy project are going to be wrapping up next year. There will still be a need to staff the legacy project for the long-term care -- additional long-term care beds. So it's not going to disappear from the budget altogether, but I think this will be the last year of renovation costs for that project. Thank you.

Thank you, Minister. Member for Great Slave.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, can the Minister or the department commit to providing us with sort of their lessons learned, where the budget when, etc, with the Stanton Legacy building and see are we on track with that. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Member. Minister.

I'm going to take "on track" to mean on time, on budget. And to the best of my knowledge, it is on time and on budget. And in terms of the lessons learned, I think that's standard practice, but we're not at that stage yet.

Thank you, Minister. Member for Great Slave.

Thank you, Madam Chair. If we could see that information. I did ask for a commitment for it to be shared. Thank you.

Thank you, Member. Minister.

I can send the Member notification that it's on budget and on time. Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. That was more about asking for the lessons learned, which now stands to be a bit of a standard thing going forward.

Moving on, I just wanted to ask for an update on the Avens pavilion and kitchen and laundry. I know that it's slated to be completed in 2023 but does have a significant component of fundraising from the actual centre itself. So is it on track to be constructed as needed and if not, will the department be looking to provide additional funding if the community fundraising does not meet expectation. Thank you.

Thank you, Member. Minister.

Thank you. This is a project of the Avens Society itself and it's not a project of ours. Our contribution to the project is for the laundry and kitchen upgrades.

In terms of the timing of the project and their fundraising goals, I have no information on that. Thank you.

Thank you, Minister. Any further questions under long-term care and continuing care? Member for Yellowknife North.

Thank you, Madam Chair. I -- you know, committee has reviewed the long-term care strategy and the work, and there's been some various needs assessments. But I guess there's 136 beds here in the capital budget. Do we have a rough estimate of what that then costs to operate in the O and M budget, or can the Minister just speak to some of the O and M costing that each of these beds puts on the budget. Thank you.

Thank you, Member. Minister.

Yes, thank you. I don't have that information with me, but I'm going to look at Mr. Elkin to see if he can give us an estimate.

Thank you. Mr. Elkin.
