Thank you. I appreciate that because I know that the Members have talked about the rising incidents of violence and vandalism, and there are lots of schools in Yellowknife that are subject to all sorts of incidents of nuisance or violence or vandalism. There are lots of windows being kicked in, or where there are youth roaming around and stuff. I have had the occasion to talk to the school boards about the increasing costs and I know there is some concern about not only extra insurance premiums you have to pay for the extra cost of covering those damages, but also preventive measures they could take like putting in extra lights or extra infrastructure around the school buildings to prevent and decrease incidents of vandalism around the school. I know that this is a very current issue and I guess I'm just wondering. My question first of all would be why is it that the GNWT does not cover the school boards No. 1 and No. 2? Thank you.
