Madam Speaker, in the matter of resources to communities, I would assume that in Education there is a formula for teachers and service by MACA is provided according to a deal worked out with the community. It varies. I don't know that anything is exactly the same. I know that in MACA we calculate the amount of work, length of roads and type of services that are required. Then the hamlet is allowed a particular amount of dollars to facilitate that. I would say that in other areas it would be based on need and demand and also requests. I don't know, perhaps the community that the honourable Member is concerned about is a very independent community.

They have 500 people and perhaps they have survived without these resources. I don't think any of us here can say why, but what we could do is check on that community and assess the population and their needs to see where they are. I can't stand here and say if a position is not there or if it is vacant, hasn't been filled or if it has been moved somewhere else. We can do an assessment of the community and attempt to answer the questions on the basis of what has happened historically and what is planned for the community. Thank you.
