Thank you, Mr. Chairman. While under the directorate, the broad policy framework is set for capital planning. There is not capital planning work done that is funded in this area. The area the Member is referring to is under culture and careers. I might as well answer the question, seeing that he has asked it. We are expecting, within the next month or so, to come forward to Cabinet with a proposal for dealing with the housing issue with the three Nunavut campuses and the Western campuses for the colleges. The Member is referring to the growth in population through the unified human resource strategy. The federal government refused to allow any incremental funding for housing. Therefore, the strategy we come forward with will not be able to deal with the housing needs of people who are being trained under the unified strategy. We still need to deal with housing students in our base-funded programs at all three college campuses.
