Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, it is something that we obviously have to wrestle with on an annual basis when we build a budget; about the size of the government as it is, the growth that happens and where we situate our services is in much of our discussion earlier and I am sure that there will be other items as we go forward.

It is something that we have to look at and I think overall when you compare our jurisdiction to many others, we have one of the better systems available. Yes, it does need improvement and we are trying to work with communities, regions and with the federal government to help us continue to improve and make sure that residents in the smallest of our communities get adequate levels of service. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have to make my views known again in regard to the NWT law courts building - territorial. Although the amount is not as big this time -- its $68,000 -- but since the announcements of last year of $40 million total, I knew that there was going to be a big backlash from my constituents and it has been well known. I just want to say that I cannot support $68,000 for the NWT law courts building - territorial, Mr. Chairman.
