Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Would the Minister not agree that we should have a formula of what works and what is considered a minimum of schools, rather than basing it solely on formulas because, like I say, if you're short one student, that could have a serious effect on your funding because you don't fall into the next bracket. Therefore, have you even considered the fact that schools need to have a base funding when it's considered representation of staff filling certain positions, like I said, maintenance, IT, librarian, rather than say, well, you don't qualify for a full body in library funding but then again you've got more funding, you figure out how to make it up. Wouldn't it be simpler? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
