Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The class size from K to nine, I believe is roughly 22 and from nine to 12 it is 17. Once again, there are no limits as to us dictating to schools, to teachers, to DECs as to the size of their classes. Once again, once the budget is calculated, there is no requirement either way. The Member also touches on an issue that has significant implications, and that is the whole area of special needs and finding what is a special need, is it FAS, FAE, ADD, is it that level or how broad do you want to make it, I guess, is the issue which would affect the amount of money required. There is a recognition on the importance, as the Member indicated, of trying to get involved early with children and families which is why money was put and supported by the committee, put into the Health Children's Initiative, why there was money that was freed up, put back in to make sure we could keep the funding at that level. We recognize, as do the Members, that special needs is an area of significant concern.
It is also our assumption, based on the numbers we do have, that special needs requirements in the Northwest Territories are probably higher than southern jurisdictions. Thank you.
