Mr. Chairman, we do not provide our share of money until the federal government provides their share. The first $1 million that was needed in this exercise was funded one-third by the GNWT, two-thirds by the federal government. That is confirmed in an agreement. I am not clear on the other $580,000 that is required, exactly what the funding ratio was between the federal government and ourselves, but I can assure you we do not commit our money until the federal government has committed theirs. Thank you.
