Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the distribution of programs is something that is always under consideration by the colleges and where they are being offered. The goal is to ensure that there is equity of access as much as can be offered across the Northwest Territories. We have a complicating issue, which is our fiscal climate at this point in time. There is no new money. The question of whether or not we are going to add programs in, changing the East/West balance, I can't commit to doing that. I can commit to say we will continue to examine where programs are offered, where they are most needed and where we have the most students who can take advantage of it. We will ensure that we do our best, given today's fiscal climate, to provide reasonable equity of access.
