One of the criteria that has been used by the Infrastructure Management Committee has been there has been some demonstration by the applicant for the funding that the operations and maintenance funding is in place, so once the infrastructure is built, it will continue to be maintained and operated to get a useful life out of the facility. In every instance, it may not be the Government of the Northwest Territories' responsibility. Before the infrastructure is built, pursuant to or in line with our own program standards and criteria, we would endeavour to ensure that our share of the operations and maintenance funding is built into the operating contributions we give to communities. Not every facility that is built under that program would become the operations and maintenance responsibility for funding by the territorial government. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
