Mr. Speaker, I would like to direct my question to the Minister of Social Services. Last year at the Yellowknife Correctional Centre there was a riot, and I understand that the repairs for the damage that was done are going ahead this week. I heard this on the radio. I would like to ask the Minister how much this is going to cost the government. I realize that there is insurance, but what are the extras that the government has to spend on repairing the damage that was done?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I know that the figure was around $200,000, but I am not sure what percentage of the bill will be carried by the government. There have been some things over and above just repairing the actual damage that we are considering in the repairs. I will take the question as notice, Mr. Speaker, so that I can give him the precise figure as to what the repairs will cost this government above the insurance coverage.
