Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, if I can pick up only where I left off just quickly on NACC and our NACC investment. I think the Minister left out a couple areas. Can you emphasize if we are going to commit to make that $30,000 that was additional core funding to top up last year's core funding to $60,000? Is he going to work to commit to make that ongoing core funding? I didn't hear his commitment towards the arts. I had asked him the question if his department was committed to the arts. Essentially that's a yes or no, but I'm sure it will come with more than just yes or no. I didn't hear about the vision about trying to help put more into it. What I said earlier about the $60,000 paying the power bill, I think I was just trying to put it to a size of where that $60,000 goes. The Minister was right saying on the side here that the territorial government does pay the power bill and maybe he should mention from his perspective the whole scope of what we pay in regard to our commitment to NACC, just to qualify the whole numbers together. Essentially, is that going to be core dollars, the $60,000 moving forward? How are we going to work towards increasing that over the long term? His commitment to the arts. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
