Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, my question is around the area of literacy. I know we asked a few questions on it earlier and I was basically directed to raise my question in the context of advanced education and career development. What I would like to know from the Minister, has the department established any goals that they are trying to strive for with regard to what the literacy rate should be, say in the year 2003 or 2005?

In some cases, the information we have from 1996 or 1997, we are talking about 40 percent in some communities. Are there any goals in place for the department to strive for so they can have some real results? So we know that this government has a game plan, knows where they are going, and exactly what we are doing as a government to bring down the large percentage of illiterate people, especially in the small communities, so that they can take advantage of these developments? What is the department doing? Does it have a game plan on how we are going to get there?
