Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I understand there is going to be a new elementary school built in Fort Simpson for over $4 million. Then, under furniture and equipment, this new school is going to get $120,000. I can't envisage the $4 million school being completed for the new school year. Am I missing something here? Is there a new school being constructed this fiscal year, to be completed for next fall, that justifies this allocation? If not, perhaps you might want to look at reallocating this for an addition to the adult educational facility in Fort Providence.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We have recognized the problem with regard to the adult educational facility. We have spent $96,000 in providing for it in Fort Providence, at least this year, with the view that we are going to plan for a new one next year. The furniture and equipment for new schools in Fort Simpson are part of the proposed renovations to Bompas Hall and the Thomas Simpson school. That is what has happened.
Previously, the furniture and equipment used to be shown as part of the project. Now, the new method of providing information means we have separated them out from those particular projects.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Since the Minister of MACA is not available, the next one would be Public Works and Services.
I would also like to ask if we can proceed right through the opening remarks and into general comments and go line by line. If it's possible, can the Minister give his opening remarks to the Members? That way they don't have to wait for it to be in Hansard tomorrow. Thank you.

Thank you, Mrs. Marie-Jewell. Is the Minister able to give his remarks directly to the Members? Am I to understand that he doesn't read them into the record, but just give them to you in written form? Mrs. Marie-Jewell.
