Thank you, Mr. Speaker. That is a good suggestion and an outstanding issue and, in fact, I believe it did come up during the review of Health and Social Services' budget. But we are currently working on a proposal with Bosco Homes to look at repatriating, as the Member has suggested, some of those services to the North. We have to keep in mind that they're not...All the children that are out there, many of them have unique circumstances. You can't sort of just lump them all together and think we can move them all back en masse. We have to look at this carefully. But we are looking at that. We recognize that some of the services we believe, as well, could be provided in the North and we hope to have some progress on that here in the next few weeks. Thank you.
