Mr. Chairman, could I ask the Minister and his officials whether or not he could also look into the matter of -- in determining the priority of a project -- whether or not they can indicate the number of communities that particular facility is intended to serve? With great respect, if the idea of a capital project is based on the amount of community support, the amount of community fund raising then I think that should be a criteria placed on all facilities. I do not think that is a basis on which you approve a capital project. It is based on need. I would ask to the Minister, if that is the criteria, that he should make that quite publicly clear to people so that everyone understands that that is the requirement.
