Mr. Chairman, the $170,000 is for the Language Nests, which is money that is meant to develop and enhance early childhood programs that immerse toddlers and preschoolers into aboriginal language and culture. That is only for money that is spent directly in support of those children. It is not for the speech pathologist.
