Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment. Mr. Speaker, last fall, the Minister wrote to boards and divisional boards of education advising that the government was reviewing options for financing local government and education. The Minister advised that they would be studying alternatives to the property tax system for funding of education. I was wondering if the Minister could provide the House with an update on progress on this study.
