Mr. Chair, I think the general answer is no. In fact, with some of these funding agreements, especially in the area of more specifically the gas tax, we had to sign, as part of the agreement, a condition that we would not claw back any of the money to communities. We don't anticipate our role to be reduced. We still have a role to play, except that we will now have the decisions for how the money is going to be spent in the municipality made by the municipality. We haven't put together all of the ingredients needed to present a formula of how some of this money will be disbursed to the community yet. We are hoping to have funding, especially the capital funding formula, ready to present to the NWT Association of Communities this June. I think the meeting is...The dates have changed to mid-May and it was supposed to be in Liard but it is now reassigned to be held here in Yellowknife. We will not be clawing back any of the dollars or expecting to diminish any of our responsibilities.
