Thank you, Madam Speaker. I would like to direct my question to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment. I was happy to receive a letter back on April 27, 1994, from the Minister's staff stating that a funding request for my constituency was approved by the Minister under the workers' training fund to fund the Ivvalu Women's Group of Arctic Bay. But, I'm disappointed to say that the funds that were approved by the Minister have not found their way to my constituents.

My question is, how long does it take to get funds approved by the Minister into the communities after the Minister approves them? Thank you.
