Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, it took a couple of supplementaries to get to this point, but indeed, we just found out that there are departmental surpluses at varying times, that FMBS and this House decide what the priorities are. It has been demonstrated, this House has identified education as a priority. Again, I would ask the Minister of Finance, that when there are departmental surpluses, would the Minister and the FMBS, the Cabinet, the government and Ordinary Members have an opportunity to ask and go to Mr. Todd to make education a priority so we could rebase like we did last week with some other organizations within this government? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
