Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I know that in the last session, Mrs. Groenewegen asked if the government would look for places where we had opportunities for day cares to operate in government-owned facilities. So we did, with Public Works, undertake an examination of that. We have, in the past, made it a practice where there is space available to provide that space. So for instance, on the Hay River Reserve, the Aboriginal Head Start Program is operating in space there and isn't being charged rent. In Mildred Hall there's a Head Start Program this year that's not being charged rent. Our position has been that while this may not be totally equitable, it is a good use of public facilities to ensure that these good programs are able to run. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
