Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would also first like to wish a very Happy Valentine's Day to all the elders and children in Arviat and Baker Lake; especially to my daughter, Kelsey. My question is to the Minister of Finance. I believe this is the appropriate Minister. This is regarding the issue of incremental funding for division. I am requesting an update as to what the present status is on discussions. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The issue of incremental funding with respect to division is a top priority in the Cabinet with the Premier and myself, as the Finance Minister. Discussions are under way right now with the federal government and also with our partners in this issue, NIC and NTI. My understanding is that some time next week, we will be in a position to make a clearer statement as to whether we believe there is adequate incremental funding in place or not. At the current time, there are significant discussions under way between the Premier's office, my office, the federal government and our partners in this issue, NTI and NIC. Thank you.
