Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the priorities that are set by communities are distributed to all the different departments. As each department is developing their capital plan with their capital budget target for that year, we do our best to try to accommodate as many of the communities' top priorities as we can. The individual department capital plans are then put together into the overall GNWT capital plan, through the inter-departmental capital planning process. Unfortunately, in the current fiscal environment there is simply not enough money available to meet all of the communities top priorities, so some sorting out is done based on trying to meet the most urgent needs in as many communities as possible. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
