Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Currently, the department provides a funding subsidy of 80 per cent of the salary, up to the amount of $35,000, to municipalities for their recreation leaders; coordinators, we call them. We've found, Mr. Speaker, that some municipalities are having a difficult time finding people from the communities to undertake the recreation leadership program and to complete their studies, and have requested that we allow them to have candidates for the recreation leadership programs who are not from the Northwest Territories and still receive the subsidy. So, based on that, we are looking at removing the criteria of having the eligible candidate be from the Northwest Territories, at the municipalities' request. Thank you.
