Thank you, Madam Chair. In regard to the area of the official language unit, especially in the area of aboriginal languages, there seems to be a real lack of funding in that area in regard to the aboriginal languages that are trying to survive, especially in regard to Gwich'in and especially with the younger generations where there is a real need to try to influence the younger generation and also start practising those languages not only in school but at home. There is talk about moving that from the Department of the Executive to Education. What role have the aboriginal groups played in regard to that decision and have they had an opportunity to be involved in any way in that decision being made or have they been consulted on that?
