Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I give notice that on Monday, June 1, 1998, I will move the following the motion:

Now therefore, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Iqaluit, that the Legislative Assembly strongly recommends the Executive Council increase base funding to the Department of Education, Culture and Employment in the current 1998-99 fiscal year by the minimum of the 6 percent reduction that occurred over the past two years. Thank you.

--Applause
