Thank you, Mr. Speaker. At the time this was set, there was, no doubt, criteria established to set these rates. The fuel prices have increased over the past three quarters of a year. The fuel rebate that we have introduced, Mr. Speaker, as I said earlier, addresses some of this for many residents in the Northwest Territories, including seniors. There is a lot of criteria that went into setting these zone rates. I am not sure what the criteria was at that particular time. Thank you.
