Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The other area that seems to have had a real effect on the education system is in the area of cuts that we have introduced in this House in the last couple of years. One of the major areas seem to be in the area of housing and the adequacy and expenditure increases that have occurred to teachers and the staff in our schools because of the inadequacy of housing or the increase in the costs of housing which may not have been there before because we have sold off all the government housing. Is there anything being done to look at that section of the bargaining, or negotiating some arrangement with the teachers to deal with that problem of housing concerns we have seen from a lot of our teachers in a lot of these smaller isolated communities and the increased costs associated with that?
