Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My question is to the Minister of Education. As I stated in my statement earlier, last week, I stated to you that the grade nine students are holding classes in the education council chambers, and the grade four students are taking classes in a corner of the gymnasium, and the Inuktitut classes are being held in the spectators' section of the gymnasium -- Coral Harbour. There was a capital estimate last year approved to retrofit the adult education centre but I do not see it now on page 18-13 in the middle section for Keewatin. We were talking about a need to create the capital estimates on a needs basis. Can the Minister tell me, what the plans are, if there is a five-year capital plan, to do something about that? The reason I am asking, Mr. Chairman, is that we have very good co-operation with the adult education centre. I do not know if Arctic College likes that or not, but we have very good co-operation between the Arctic College section of adult education and the school, so we have been utilizing the student classes in the adult education section because our old school has not been retrofitted or renovated or expanded, so if the adult education had been retrofitted then we probably could have accommodated some of these students who are attending the regular school, in the adult education section, even if it meant putting them in the council chambers again. At least it would be more suitable when it is retrofitted.
