Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As the Member and Members of this House will know, we don't do consultation on the budget. That is an issue that we have to undertake as part of the operation of government. So when reductions are proposed, they are considered by the government, and we take a look at the information and make the decisions based on the criteria that we have. In this case, we looked at what the impact would be on those who use the service, and it was determined that this would have the least impact on users across the Northwest Territories. Thank you.
