Thanks, Mr. Chair. I appreciate the response from the department. So the cost recovery is a consideration. Do we look at what other jurisdictions charge for these services as well? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the Member is correct. We do look at what other jurisdictions charge. Mr. Schauerte pointed out that there is a bit of a cost recovery. If Members are interested, I am sure we can provide a document that compares our fees to other jurisdictions. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the Member is correct. The audits were done. We have a couple of communities that are facing some challenges. I am not sure if it is appropriate to speak to those particular communities in a public forum such as this. If we enter into a briefing with committee, I would be glad to share some of the information, some of the details.

Through the accountability framework, we are going to have the capacity now to pick up a lot of these issues soon. That will prevent a lot of our communities, as in the past, from getting into any financial difficulties. We will be able to identify sooner and then work with the communities and get them into a good financial position. If we provide a briefing to the Members or if the Member would like a conversation with myself, I can share some of the particulars. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thanks, Mr. Chair. I would like to follow up on my colleague's questions about changes to the Cities, Towns and Villages Act to enable the tax-based municipalities to use local improvement charges for energy retrofit purposes. I heard from the department that they are doing research. I understood this was a fairly simple amendment that is being requested. The NWTAC is on record as requesting this change. What is the scope of the research that is being undertaken? Why can't we get this done a lot quicker than four years? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, we would like to try to get this in as quickly as possible. As I said before, we are doing our research. If that shows us that we are able to get this piece of legislation through or the amount of work that might be required to get this piece of legislation through, that is something that we will obviously consider. Let us finish the research, and then we will make a determination from there. I don't think we are that far from finishing. Let us do that. Then we will make a determination at that time if it is just a quick fix to make an amendment. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thanks, Mr. Chair. I am just trying to understand the scope of this research. Is the department looking at a total review of the CTV Act or just this specific very small change that is being requested to allow the tax-based municipalities to have the authority to use local improvement charges for this very specific purpose? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Certainly, there is some urgency from the Member to move it forward with opening the CTV Act to allow this legislation to be put in place, or amendments to the legislation. By opening the CTV Act, there are a lot of other amendments that are required as well, so it doesn't make sense just to open it for one piece. We have a number of items being raised by NWTAC over the years that we have to consider as well. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The department can correct me if I am wrong in asking this question in this division, but I think this is okay. The description says this division is also responsible for the assessment of all land and improvements in the Northwest Territories. My question is relative to the mandate document item 3.1.2 where we state, "We will support community-based planning to help make land available for the construction of affordable housing."

In my former political life as a councillor for the city of Yellowknife, I know that the city had made an application to the department for a greater land application, in fact, for this purpose, to make more land available so that the city can do better long-term planning, in most part to support affordable housing. I wonder if the department can maybe provide some explanation as to why, to date, the greater land applications for the capital city do not pass and that the city is in fact in a position where they have to continually apply for piecemealed properties or piecemeal pieces of land on an as-and-when basis, rather than accepting the greater land applications. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. The process you are referring to, with the city approaching the department, was when the department had the responsibility for Commissioner's land within the department. So that issue was related to accessing commissioner's land. With Lands now being its own department, the question about dealing with lands itself would need to be addressed with the Department of Lands. Our role through this division is to support community governments in developing land use plans. We would support them with helping them hire consultants, reviewing the plans, and functions such as that. So our role no longer is related specifically to the access of land.

Thanks, Mr. Chair. So I notice that there is a contribution that took place in 2014-15, Management of drinking water in the NWT for $50,000, but there's no further funding provided for that purpose. Was that money that we received from another order of government, or are we continuing to support the function in some other way? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, this was money that was to help the communities as they applied for water licenses, and they do have some money through the money we provide to them. So we provide them with some technical assistance and some administrative assistance, and I can assure the Member that the quality of the drinking water across the Northwest Territories, with the work that the communities have done building their own water treatment plants, is very good, and they've done a really good job with that. It was for water licenses, and they use the money that they have now, and we support them with our regional and headquarters staff. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, actually there was none. The NWTAC, LGANT, and some of the organizations that we make contributions to recognize that there may be some reductions coming, and they were willing to do their part, looking at the bigger picture, understanding that, you know, we were trying to do what we can to free up more money that we can allocate to the community governments as per the formula funding reviews. So they were cooperative and -- I mean, nobody likes reductions, obviously, but there wasn't a wholesale complaint to this reduction. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

So I'll just let you know that the NHL draft is tonight and we're hoping that Toronto makes a good pick and can plan their Stanley Cup parade for next year. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, thank you. Is this fund, can it be subscribed to and applied for and the community get $40,000 as they save up to purchase a new vehicle? Because I know one of the big expenses is the capital cost. So can they apply over four or five years, get that $40,000, bank it, and put it towards the purchase of a new vehicle?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just was kind of curious about this program initiative, too. Assuming that we live on the highway, plus at the same time of course there are needed resources at the local level. So if not the success of this program being application-based and making it available for community governments to access at least some supplementary funds to at least keep their operations going in terms of providing ground ambulances, especially for communities along the highway. If the application base is not working, not succeeding, is the department considering perhaps a program initiative?

This is a vital and critical need in terms of ensuring that, you know, we have a mode of transportation for people that would travel on the highway or else in the local community. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, and that's part of the work we did when we did the review. One of the challenges that we face in the communities is that they may want the equipment that they need, but there's some training capacity. They need some training. There was also a liability issue. We've actually had a community sell an ambulance that they had bought, when they realized there was a huge liability without the proper training. We've tried to make training available through the School of Community Government. I think in conjunction with DOT, we've made some training available to help build up the capacity so people can be first responders.

The review was done, and communities came to realize that there was a liability in trying to provide ground ambulance or highway rescue services without the proper training, so we continue to address that. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. This has been an ongoing initiative for some time. I understood that there was some inter-department cooperation involving another department that's culminated in this program initiative and its application base. Surely we've identified the challenges, namely the capacity issue and the need for training, at the same time, liability issues.

What is the department doing to at least mitigate those challenges, to ensure that the ground ambulances are made available, at least the resources, at the local level? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the department, as I said before, has done some community-based first responder training to -- we want to improve the capacity of our staff and volunteers; and then also a web-based tool kit to help communities recruit and train volunteer first responders. Then we have the, we had the, work that was just done, and they identified some challenges that we're facing. I mean, I can assure the Member and all Members, actually, that we recognize that this is a service that's required by some communities, but then we also respect the communities' desire to have more training so that they can be first responders without the liability.

There are opportunities for communities through some of the funding that they receive from the department, along with applying for the pot of funding here, the $185,000 pot of funding, to help them with some of their capital costs that they may require to provide this service. The big one is to build the capacity so they can be first responders. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the communities are aware of the money that's available through this particular grant and contribution. They are aware of the funding. The long-term goal is to see as many communities that may be on the highway system, or any community for that matter, have the capacity, the training and the equipment they need to provide this service. We will work with them.

If we come to a point where we have to come back to the Assembly to enhance the pot because we have more people that are trained up and more communities that are wanting to access this money, then it's something that we will consider at the appropriate time. Right now the communities recognize that they have some challenges, and we're helping them to try and address those challenges. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

So ground transportation and highway rescue, is MACA's responsibility, DPW's responsibility - or Department of Transportation's responsibility, or Health and Social Services' responsibility?
