Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Member is right; the engineer's report is out. The engineers are confident that the school is safe. It is not in any danger of a situation developing that would be unsafe for the students or the staff in the building. We are going to have to do more work this summer to assess just what sorts of repairs need to be undertaken. It appears that one of the biggest problems was that when the addition was added, they didn't put an expansion joint between the two parts of the school. So they are moving at different rates, the two parts. How that is going to be handled, we don't know yet. More work will be done this summer on the piles to determine what is likely to develop in terms of movement of those piles. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
