NTI updates enrollment procedures

Nunavut Tunngavik Inc. has announced what its hopes will be improvements to the procedures used to maintain its list of Inuit beneficiaries.

It has developed a new enrollment manual to streamline the application process, and created a computerized computer database to speed up the updating of the enrollment list.

The organization has also put a three-year limit on the length of time that a person may serve as a member of a community enrollment committee.

A revised Inuit Enrollment List will soon be distributed to each community so that people can look at their information and make corrections, if needed.

To get benefits from the Nunavut land claims agreement, beneficiaries must be on the enrollment list.
