Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The Arctic College board has always reported to the Minister. That is not a change. The fact is that post-secondary programming and the Arctic College board is now a task in culture and careers. We are placing them in a position where they are now accountable. They are not independent. They are accountable for publicly-expended resources. If the honourable Member doesn't want that to happen, that is a different issue. My direction, in reorganizing the department, is to make them publicly accountable, as they should be, to the Minister because that is the basis on which their act was originally set up.
The other thing is that the honourable Member indicates that all the third-party arrangements have been worked out simply through Arctic College. Not all of them have been worked out through Arctic College. The department has been involved in coming up with some of those third-party arrangements. In other words, it is basically money interminably going around in circles. We are basically trying to say that there has to be an accountability. That does not mean that we have changed any legislation. We have not changed any legislation to suggest that the Arctic College board should not be able to raise their own funds. I would, in fact, encourage that. But, at the same time, there should be some accountability. They should not be so independent that they're not publicly accountable to the Minister. If the suggestion is that, then we have to change the legislation to give them absolute independence so they're not accountable to the Minister. My suggestion to you is that the best way to approach this is to put them in a situation where they are accountable through a section of the department.
