Madam Chairperson, we are going to build a young offenders facility for young male offenders. Instead of renovating the old Yellowknife Correctional Institute, we are going to build a new building. We believe that, in discussions with DPW, our officials, and our consultants, that we can build the two facilities in such a manner that they can be close together, whether they would be actually physically linked to each other or not. We will get into detailed planning of it very shortly. As I said, there is no actual design made yet, but we will proceed very shortly to do that. Members that wish to see the plans as we proceed will be welcome to have that information provided to them. That is what I have said yesterday and I think the day before. Thank you.
