Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I believe the honourable Member is mixing up the issue of the strategic planning process, which is ongoing with the Strategic Initiatives Fund, understandably because we are using the terms strategic for both. The Strategic Initiatives Fund which the honourable Member is referring to because he mentioned the dollar amount in the allocations for Yellowknife. The applications will come forward, proposals from the board on which programs they want to try to target in providing some additional services, as had been indicated in specific areas in trying to address more pro-actively some of the preventive support programs that we may have available or that may be developed. This is certainly an avenue that some of the non-government agencies and support groups might be able to provide some of the services. First of all, the regional health social services board would have to put forth proposals for consideration before they could look for the delivery agent for those programs, Mr. Chairman. Thank you.
