Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We have dealt with the responsibility we have dealing with the whole matter of administration and management. My belief is that the selection of Dr. Curtis is intended to alleviate some of the serious management concerns that arose some time ago and were, in fact, articulated by the department to the South Slave Divisional Board of Education.
I want to advise the honourable Member that some other boards have been in situations where they have had deficits and there was no attempt on the part of the government to bail them out. In other words, I recall the Dogrib Divisional Board of Education and their society being in over a $1 million deficit and they had to find a way to resolve that particular issue. There are others, as well, that are in deficits; I believe there might be two others, and both of those are being asked to do the same thing that the South Slave Divisional Board of Education is being asked to do.
As difficult as it might seem, I think we have to be prepared to recognize that, unfortunately, the results of bad management are such that the consequences aren't necessarily felt by those who created the deficit but are, in fact, having to live with it. That's a very difficult position to put people in but it's nonetheless something we have to address.
