Mr. Speaker, I will check on whether the planning money will be exactly in 1993-94, but to give a little bit of a background on that, when the two units in Iqaluit and Inuvik were discussed at the transfer time, we put up those dates and my recollection - I was not the Minister of Health at that time, but I was involved - is that we were aiming for about that period of time. There are a number of issues that have to be resolved in terms of the catchment area of the Inuvik region. I believe that we should be given the planning, but some major decisions will have to be made on who will be using the regional hospital.

For example, we have not decided what we are going to do with the Sahtu region. Half of that region is using our hospital, and the other half is in Yellowknife. That type of planning should begin to take place and the board or the region, should be addressing that as soon as possible. Unless that question is answered, it would be difficult to plan a facility not knowing what the catchment area is and who will be using the unit. I will check into the matter to see that the discussion begins very soon.
