Thank you, Mr. Chairman. At the present time, we have four community governments that are reporting an accumulated overall deficit. We are working closely, almost on a one-on-one basis, with each one of those communities to assist them in developing the planning and the controls, including the training of SAOs and whatever that takes to work with those communities to get them out of their deficits.
In addition, there are six other communities that are potentially heading towards deficits in the future, if current trends continue. This past year we instituted a trends monitoring report that we can provide to the communities that will allow the councils and the SAOs to realize, before the auditors come in after the end of a year, that problems may be on the horizon.
For instance, the six that are heading towards difficulties, we might not have even known about their difficulties in some cases until three or four months from now when the audits came out. Now we are able to work with those communities today and try and help them come up with plans that will allow them to recover and get out of their potential deficit situations. Thank you.
