Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is addressed to the Minister responsible for Education, Culture and Employment and it is on the issue of the student financial assistance program. My colleague for North Slave made it very clear that they are interested in having that program transferred, devolved down to their region, not through land claims right now, not through self-government, but devolved because they have a divisional board. I asked the question in this House repeatedly, why does this government hang on to that program with such a desperate grip and insist on administering it out of headquarters in spite of the endless problems and complaints? Can the Minister explain to this House why?
