Clause 119 refers to powers of an education body and some of those powers refer to borrowing money, making resolutions to borrow money and making by-laws to borrow money through various securities. Currently, I understand the government ... And then there are other clauses, 127, 135 and 137, which all refer to financial aspects. I understand there is a review going on by someone in the government on the ability of raising revenues for education bodies or municipal councils. Can you enlighten us on where this review is or are you involved in this review?

This is just for clarification, Mr. Chairman. I presume you are talking to boards, municipalities and aboriginal organizations that may take on responsibilities for education; people who are involved in the process.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Yes, in the terms of reference we did specify municipalities and education bodies. I am not certain whether we referred to aboriginal organizations. I am informed that we did. So we will be consulting with them as well. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
