Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This government will entertain any suggestions that are made by Members and representatives from the outlying communities on how we can enhance the possibility for communities like Hay River to take advantage of future opportunities in the diamond cutting and polishing business. We will also look for ways to encourage employees from those diamond mines who are currently in need of finding permanent residence in the Northwest Territories to look to communities like Hay River and Fort Smith as good places for permanent residence. Many of the employees, in fact, almost all of them, are fly-in and fly-out type of employees. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Premier. Item 6, oral questions. The honourable Member for Yellowknife South, Mr. Bell.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is directed to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment and again it is about fetal alcohol syndrome. I am wondering if the Northwest Territories Department of Education has curriculum which serves to educate young people about the dangers of drinking during pregnancy? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Bell. The honourable Minister responsible for the Department of Education, Culture and Employment, Mr. Ootes.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The issue of fetal alcohol syndrome and fetal alcohol effect is, I believe, part of the health curriculum that is taught in the schools. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Minister. Supplementary, Mr. Bell.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am wondering if the Minister can tell us what grade this curriculum begins at? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Bell. The honourable Minister responsible for the Department of Education, Culture and Employment, Mr. Ootes.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I do not have that information at hand, but I will get the information for the Member. Thank you.

Thank you. Supplementary, Mr. Bell.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am also wondering about the diagnosis of FAS in our students and wondering how it occurs. For instance, if a teacher suspects that a child may suffer from FAS, is that child automatically referred for diagnostic testing? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Bell. The honourable Minister responsible for the Department of Education, Culture and Employment, Mr. Ootes.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. There is a process in place whereby the parents would have to be consulted. It does have to be diagnosed by a medical doctor with specialization in this area. During the student support needs survey, it was found that a number of students were there but the answer to the question of the numbers could only be done so on the basis of those who have been medically diagnosed, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you. Final supplementary, Mr. Bell.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. If a teacher suspects FAS and the family consents to testing, does the Department of Education, Culture and Employment pay for that testing? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Bell. The honourable Minister responsible for the Department of Education, Culture and Employment, Mr. Ootes.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It is my understanding that it becomes the responsibility of the Department of Health at that point, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
