Just in regard to the latest report on the needs surveys, how soon is the department going to get back to us on how they’re going to deal with some of these statistics indicating core need, adequate housing, and stuff like that? I know that we’ve just concluded the allocation of units, because I was pointing out to Mr. Beaulieu that Colville Lake is getting $375,000 yet they’re at 95 percent core need. For that amount of money I don’t think we can really solve the problem. Hopefully this department will be able to identify those areas of intention, especially now that we have a needs survey that we can identify where those areas are going forward with the budget. Hopefully next year we can identify some of those unique areas of challenge that we have in different communities, whether it’s the Deh Cho, Sahtu, or Behchoko or other communities, so that we resolve this issue of core need and adequacy of housing. I look forward to seeing that coming forward. I’d like to ask the Minister how soon we can see that change take place.
