Mandate of the Government of the Northwest Territories (2019-2023)

The Mandate of the Government of the Northwest Territories (2019-2023) guides the GNWT's actions to advance the priorities of the 19th Legislative Assembly.

This mandate reflects the 22 priorities set by all members of the 19th Legislative Assembly, based on what Members heard from their constituents. The mandate will help guide and focus our work to deliver on the priorities over the term of this government. It describes what we will do, how we will do it, the time we think it will take, and how we will measure success.

Ministerial mandate letters provide more specific direction to each Minister on their individual responsibilities for carrying out the priorities of the 19th Legislative Assembly and the commitments identified in the Mandate of the Government of the Northwest Territories: 2019-2023. The letters also include specific priorities that allow for performance to be measured.
