Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. As we saw in our budget deliberations, we are not faced with massive cuts at all, but I am a firm believer of continuous improvement and about shifting budgets around. We can do that, but we actually have to guard against having our smaller communities impacted and hurt. We saw that in the

last Assembly when we went for change. It was easier to do it outside Yellowknife. I would guard against that.

At the same time, the consensus style of government we are talking about is about working with committees, and the last Assembly, if I refer too much there, it was about the best ideas did come from the committee structures; and whether Cabinet listened to them is another matter. But with commitment of working together and everybody working as a team, we can find those efficiencies, changes, and reallocate resources within departments. Thank you.
