Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the Member is correct. The funding has been transferred for shelters to all of the regional health and social services boards. I will commit to try and facilitate with them as to whether or not they can come up with some additional funding to meet the needs of this specific Inuvik Transition House. I would like to point out, Mr. Speaker, there are a lot of communities in some regions that do not have these types of facilities available, unfortunately. The main goal is to provide shelters in all communities. It may not be at a specific shelter, but, certainly, to have some safe houses or a place where individuals needing assistance can be placed for their protection, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
