Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the division of Human Resources within the Department of Finance is -- really, they service the clients of all -- they're the departments of their clients. So this is again not something that we can look at one or two or a handful of individuals who are being -- who are within the department or within the Department of Finance. It is about the entire Government of the Northwest Territories, every department, every community, and every hiring manager out there that they are taking the mandatory training, both in terms of cultural sensitivity, that they are taking the mandatory training about how to do government hiring, and that they are relying on the tools available to them through the department of human -- I'm sorry -- through the Department of Finance and the human resource professionals that we have. The Department of Finance is going through the government renewal first to ensure that the spending of money that we have there aligns with the priorities and values of the Government of the Northwest Territories and completing right now a framework that will again ensure that when we do that hiring, that every department is really providing a framework so that human resources can look at each department. And you know, again, Mr. Speaker, the point and the purpose of all that is to continually renew the work that we do, to continually renew the public service, and to ensure that it is responsive and representative. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
