Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, we've been working with the government overall on the aspects of energy efficiency and how we operate. I guess one of the areas that we look at, from the Public Works and Services side, is one where it is in that initial design of how we put new buildings into service and how we might upgrade when we do renovations and the codes that are out there right now. Again, the Canadian Building Incentive Program is one where we're putting to use, for example, within the Tulita school, the planning for a new courthouse, and the new schools in Inuvik, the replacement of those two facilities. So those plans are being incorporated upfront to ensure that, as building owners, we are getting the best value for our dollar being spent, and addressing those upfront would, in the long run, increase our efficiencies when it comes to paying out the dollars for that.
As well, we have in the budget upgrades for a couple of the local office spaces we have here, being the Laing Building and the Stuart Hodgson Building are the two areas that we've got work, as well, to increase energy efficiency. So those are happening on the big side. Of course, on the day-to-day process, when you go into many of our offices, we've already, through previous years, practiced and ongoing practices as either we get better or increased efficiency as the type of lighting we've
used, the fixtures, whether they shut off automatically. That type of area.
As well, I would just like to thank the Member for his positive comments around the news he's heard. Thank you.
