Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would also like to look into the situation. I would like to ask the Minister whether or not he might be able to provide me with the list of students since 19M that have not been advanced in levels or grades. I would like to get a list of that If you could provide it.

Question O660-12(2): Increase To Liquor Licence Fee
Item 5: Oral Questions

John Todd Keewatin Central
My question is to the Minister responsible for Government Services, and it is a follow-up to Mr. Koe's question. If a five per cent liquor licence fee covers all administration costs, and this 100 per cent increase is required, is it a tax grab or is it additional revenues required with respect to the cost of administration? Tell us what it is. Is it a tax grab or is it an administrative necessity?

Question O661-12(2): Review On Cost Impact Of Indexing Social Assistance Rates
Item 5: Oral Questions

Henry Zoe North Slave
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have a question for the Minister of Social Services. On June 23, the Minister told me that the department would be analyzing the cost impacts of the new food cost survey on social assistance rates. This review would be done this summer and completed by September. The department also will be looking at tying social assistance rates to the cost of living index. I understand this will be a separate review. My question to the Minister is, could the Minister tell me when he expects the review on the cost impact of indexing social assistance rates will be completed?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to ask a question to the Minister of Education in respect to his response on written questions to Mr. Koe. The Minister of Education has submitted an appendix A which indicates new educational leave applications in the 1992-93 academic year, and in addition, continuing educational leave applicants 1992-93 academic year. Can the Minister indicate to this House what portion of this list has been approved for financial assistance by his department?

Mr. Speaker, this is for the Minister of Transportation and Government Services. The aviation industry in the communities have been contacted by Government Services for their input in a review of fuel purchasing by the Government of the Northwest Territories. Would the Minister update us on the response from these interests, outlining the problems they have encountered, and give us some idea of the status of the review process to date?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am going to ask a question from the statement I made on behalf of social agencies a few days ago, that has to do with a question to the Minister of Social Services. I am aware that there are several mentally handicapped persons from the NWT who are living in southern institutions. The Association for Community Living has reported that this government's spends $100,000 annually to care for these individuals in southern institutions. Has the Department of Social Services looked at bringing these people back from southern institutions?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Yes, we have a number of persons in southern facilities for a variety of reasons, and it has always been our interest to repatriate, wherever possible. It is a practice that we will continue.
