Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Yes, at the present time we have three programs within the Department of Education, Culture and Employment that deal with early childhood areas.

We have the Early Childhood Program, which we put in approximately $867,000; the Healthy Children's Initiative of $1.9 million; and the Day Care Subsidy Program of $1.2 million. That is the area that the Member is obviously very interested in and very concerned about.

We are working with Health and Social Services, as we are all aware, to develop the Early Childhood Development Plan. Progress is quite good on that, Mr. Speaker, and one of the areas that we are dealing with, and one of the interest areas that I have, is in the area of day care services for the Northwest Territories.

We do provide subsidy programs for start-ups and operations and maintenance, but there are occasions when operations do run short of funding in order to accommodate the number of children who are in need of day care. We are working on that, Mr. Speaker.
