Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Department of Education, Culture and Employment doesn't keep any separate funding for student transportation. All of that money that is for student transportation is included in the $120 million-plus that is given to the schools for their operation. So in those communities, the schools, or the DEC, or the Tlicho Community Services Agency will have to examine how they can accomplish school bussing if that is their intent. They are already getting all of the money that we have for education as part of the formula. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
