Mr. Speaker, I would indicate to the honourable Member that this government has taken the position of moving toward community secondary schooling. That is the policy which was initiated by Mr. Kakfwi, followed up by Mr. Allooloo and Mr. Arvaluk, and now myself. It is our belief that a school program delivered at the community level, where the student feels most comfortable, is probably the best schooling available. In that context, I am going to continue with the initiatives which have been undertaken by previous Ministers and what is presently the policy of this government. The honourable Member can be assured that when there are requests made by the school board, we will deal positively with them to accommodate those students and the community's request.
