Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, what I can confirm is that there are no changes proposed at this point in time. We have started the process to take a look at how we might more equitably provide service to all of the communities in the Northwest Territories. I am sure that the honourable Member for Inuvik will recognize that, for instance, the Member who sits beside him in the House has communities that receive absolutely no funding for community libraries. We have to find some way to address that situation. What has happened so far, Mr. Speaker, is that the first draft of the paper was sent out to ask our regional superintendents for advice on how they felt that draft should be restructured before we broaden the scope of the consultation process. I can commit that I will come back to the committee and this forum will have a chance to comment on any change before it is put in place. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
