I take the Member’s point. A motion was passed earlier to enhance services in communities. We will be responding to that. I think a way to solve wanting the issue of increasing services in communities does not have to be done by eliminating an option of the authorities to move their money around if they needed to, because sometimes they need to do that. Some of our authorities are governed by their board and the board trustees have to have some option to make some of those decisions. I don’t think that is necessarily the reason why there might not be some nurses in Tsiigehtchic. I think that issue could be addressed by answering to that motion that was passed earlier. I think it is really important that we leave some flexibility to the authorities to make some choices and priority decisions. Thank you.
