Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I give notice that on Thursday, June 4th, 2026, I will move the following motion:
Now therefore I move, seconded by the Member for Range Lake, that the Government of the Northwest Territories take the necessary steps to restructure the current Department of Health and Social Services into two distinct departments:
1. A department of health focused on clinical services, primary care, and public health; and
2. A department of social services focused on child and family services, mental health and addictions, and community well-being;
And furthermore, that the Government of the Northwest Territories transfer all income support programs and relevant social policy functions from other departments to the newly established Department of Social Services to ensure an integrated wraparound service delivery model.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
