Yes, thank you, Madam Chair. I'm just wondering, it gets back to the questions I had earlier on charity leases and maintenance that Public Works and Services provides to tenants in these charity leases. It would seem to me that perhaps a more transparent and accountable way of showing those expenses would be to put them under a title like work performed on behalf of others, because really that's what Public Works and Services is doing when they're maintaining buildings that are occupied by folks that are in a charity lease. I was just wondering if the Minister would like to comment on that, and perhaps a way of accounting for those funds would be better under this title than buried in the numbers in the other section. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, the work performed on behalf of others is work that we do for others and we are paid the money to do it. So the money that is identified here is money that we are receiving from other groups to do that work. Whereas, when we have to account for a charity lease, that is a grant-in kind-and would fall in the other section. So it wouldn't fit into work performed on behalf of others because that's actual revenue coming in, whereas a grant-in-kind is loss. We're basically accounting the loss of revenue in that sense. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. I thank the Minister for that. Perhaps we could come up with a category entitled "work performed for free." Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. I guess we'd be doing the same thing as saying grant-in-kind. Thank you.

Madam Chair, I just have a question on Tlicho implementation. Where there was a reduction in the O and M budget for assets transferred to Tlicho community governments, $446,000, I'm just wondering if the Minister can tell me if there's still outstanding, like, assets or O and M to be transferred down the road, or is it the final $446,000 transferred? Mahsi.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, that would be the final amounts that have been transferred now and all the assets transferred so that within Public Works and Services I don't believe we have any other assets out there to be transferred. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Just a quick question. I notice there were four PYs, two full-time by region and two full-time by asset management. I'm just wondering if they're the same positions, because there are two positions in the community. But at the same time,
are those programs and also PYs going to be transferred later through the Tlicho Government implementation?

Thank you, Madam Chair. I'm trying to find the page number that the Member is referring to on those positions for the Tlicho. Under asset management? My understanding of the two positions being identified are the ones that are working for the Rae water and sewer treatment plant. Thank you.

Just a final note, that implementation of the Tlicho agreement...No, that's fine; sorry. I'll ask that question on a different department. Thanks.
