Thank you, Madam Speaker. Having deputy ministers serve as members of the board has helped to ensure alignments with the NTPC's work and planning as the utility with broader energy priorities for the Northwest Territories. While some cost savings to repairs may be achieved by having this board of volunteers, there is a cost in terms of deputy ministers' time and focus. And there are also other options that might be preferred to keep work aligned where it makes sense to be. Northwest Territories Power Corporation, for example, should continue to work with the GNWT on maximizing opportunities for investment in capital, particularly where this can help avoid costs passed on to the ratepayers, Madam Speaker. While I'm not going to commit to the outcome of the questions, I have committed to engaging with Regular MLAs and having questions around the board of directors answered by the end of this Assembly. Thank you, Madam Speaker.
