Okay. So that North Slave district office here, it says there's -- you recognize North Slave district office for the active position. And, I mean, for North Slave district, but you recognize Tlicho but there's nothing allocated there. So I ask why is that?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I believe this is just a formatting. The format for the pages is something that we fill out for the main estimates but as you can see, we filled it all out as North Slave office positions for 12 positions. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Okay. Well, North Slave district office there's -- it's not just Tlicho region. Tlicho -- four Tlicho communities. There's Lutselk'e. There's Dettah. There's N'dilo. There's Lutselk'e. So how many of this position goes to the outlying communities?

Okay, I just said that it's not just Tlicho communities. There's four Tlicho communities. There's Dettah, N'dilo. There -Lutselk'e. There's Fort Resolution and Yellowknife headquarters -- I mean, North Slave. You know, Yellowknife is -- for us, it's headquarters. So I'm just -- how many of this position is allocated in the outlying communities?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So just to correct, it's the four Tlicho communities, Lutselk'e and Yellowknife and Dettah, N'dilo. Fort Res is in our South Slave Region for our purposes. And the 12 positions work with all of the communities listed. So there will be program officers, technical staff, finance staff. They work with all communities, all LHOs out of that district office. They're not assigned per community. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Okay, thank you. Well, that's good. I think then we know that, you know, we'll get -- program will be operating effectively and efficiently and especially for the people and for the elders, you know, that require interpreters and all that.
So seniors aging in place retrofit and repairs, okay, it increases. It increased this year to -- 2023-2024, it increased. So I just wanted to ask for the income threshold, what is the income threshold? Is it the same in all the regions or is it different, like from Tuk to Behchoko?
