Mr. Speaker, yes, the Ministers, the departments follow the policies that are set for all of our planning and our activities that we develop. There are some projects that may change. When we put together a five-year capital plan or a 20-year needs assessment, it doesn't mean that something that's booked for five years from now is necessarily still going to be the same priority in five years time. Things may change. For example, as Mr. Roland mentioned, we are building a campus in Inuvik. It only makes sense that we need to have student housing. Do we have to build a residence for students at the same time? I don't know. I am told there is currently enough space. There may be other priorities that will supersede those, and that happens all the time any time we make projections and we have to bring it down to what we can afford to do in a particular year. Thank you.
