Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Member is talking over the past couple of days about the benefits of incorporating childcare space into learning facilities like schools. I would say that I agree with him that it would be the best possible option if we could see early childcare spaces close to or incorporated in schools. We would be quite prepared to incorporate the space into the school, but we don't have the capital program that funds the building of those spaces, so we encourage the community to take a look at ways in which they could raise funds to have the facility incorporated in the school. We are quite prepared to make sure that it is included in the functional plan. But when it comes to detailed planning, they would need a commitment from the community for the funds to build the facility. Thank you.
