Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We are continuing to work with the federal government to see if we can access more funding for that new school. The designs are actually being prepared for an eleven-classroom school instead of seven. To date, the federal government has only committed to funding the seven classrooms. As the Members of this House know, the capital budget of our department is severely stretched right now, so we have not yet been able to identify any additional funding and will continue to work with the federal government to see if we can pressure them to agree that this is a result of incremental growth, therefore should be incremental funding.
