Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as the Minister responsible for Seniors, if I receive questions of this nature from the general public, or concerns expressed of this nature from the general public, I would direct them to the appropriate departments. There have been some questions in the past from seniors in different areas in the Northwest Territories about specifically increasing the amount of fuel subsidy. However, I have never had the opportunity or reason to question the program as it is being delivered by Education. I redirect those people to bring their concerns to the appropriate department. I also advise them that if they still have a problem as to getting satisfactory results, satisfactory answers, that I would use my Ministry as a direct avenue to the appropriate Minister.
