Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I'm also wondering, since we are on this part here -- oh actually, no, sorry, that's a capital cost question so I will skip over that. Can the Minister confirm if the total $8.5 million is for all of the costs that will be needed to operate Stanton Legacy in its first year in operation? Thank you.

Thank you. Minister.

Yes, thank you for the question. So $4.23 million is for long-term care. $3.9 million is for extended care. And the programs that are moving into Stanton Legacy are already funded. So there is no additional funding for them in this budget.

Thank you. Member for Kam Lake.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. And can the Minister confirm when the opening day is for Stanton Legacy? Thank you.

Thank you. Minister.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, at this point we do not have an opening day. We have an opening season. Summer.

Thank you. Member.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Luckily it's a short season so it kind of gives me a good indication of when that might be.

Can the Minister also confirm that any cost associated with the move in will also be included in this $8.5 million? Thank you.

Thank you. Minister.

Thank you. I'll ask the director of finance to answer, please.

Thank you. Ms. Johnson.

There is some funding under the capital project for the transition into the new facility as well as some limited funding in this $8.6 million.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, when will Health have a better idea of what the move in day is because I know that, you know, summer is a season but it's a quickly approaching season, thankfully, even though we look outside and it's very chilly out it goes fast. Thank you.

Thank you. Minister.

Yes, thank you. We're waiting for some modifications that were required before we take the keys, which we expect to do this spring. Then they'll be a commissioning period and a period where people and equipment is moved in to the building to make it operational. And at that point, the public will be welcomed in to the building. That's why we're saying summer. There are some loose ends around exactly what amount of time is allocated to each of those activities. I think that once we obtain the keys to the building and begin the commissioning, we'll be in a better position to identify a moving in day. That's what happened with the Stanton Territorial Hospital. Once the keys were received, they identified a move in -- or pardon me, a first day of operations for patients.

Thank you. Member for Kam Lake.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. So, Madam Chair, going forward, because it will no longer be a capital budget expenditure, it will be O and M, so in this kind of different scenario, we now lease this facility Stanton Legacy from a third party. And so any of deficiencies that are found within Stanton Legacy once it comes on board, are those going to be the responsibility of the third party, or how is that going to work, or have you divided up so that, you know, there is a clear indication of what will be the GNWT's responsibility for funding and what will be the third party's responsibility for funding? Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you. Minister of Health and Social Services.

Yes, thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, the Department of Infrastructure is in charge of the building and the renovation at this point. So any deficiencies or need to address deficiencies would be questions for them. We're the end user. So we get the keys, and at that point we sincerely hope it is trouble free.

Thank you. Member for Kam Lake.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. And thank you for that. Likely, you know, we'll have that opportunity. I'm wondering if the Minister can also identify what is the cost per bed that Stanton Legacy uses for long-term care clients and the cost per bed that they use for extended care facilities? Thank you.

Thank you. Minister.
