Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The point I am trying to make is similar to what is happening in the area of division where people are being trained in the west in different departments so when division takes place, these people are there and they can fill in these positions which we are training them now to take over. The same thing occurs in the land claim agreements where they also negotiate an implementation agreement which identifies training dollars which are going to be required to have those people trained to take on those positions. What I am asking the Minister is, these two avenues have already been done where people are trained. They are there, so when they take over something these people can fill these positions and there are monies there to train them so we do not have to keep putting in proposals. You take over something and then you train somebody after the fact. Let us have these people trained before we allow these responsibilities to go to the community. Can the Minister tell me if her department is doing anything to ensure the communities have the adequate funds to have these people trained before the fact of taking over these responsibilities?
