Mr. Speaker, this particular area of reduction, about $900,000 and some, was spread across all the boards and authorities across the Northwest Territories. So I will raise the issue with the Yellowknife Health and Social Services Authority, but clearly if there is any move on this, it will have to be territory-wide because it would be unfair to assume there would be any less problem or suffering or difficulty in Inuvik or any other authority. However, I will raise the issue with the Yellowknife Health and Social Services keeping in mind that they have a $33 million budget. Stanton has about $60 million and some, so basically there is about $100 million in health and social services dollars located in Yellowknife. This is an overall cut of about $600,000. The board has made the determination of how they want to deal with that, but I will revisit it with the board. Thank you.
