Mahsi, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, that school, as we talked about earlier, will be part of the next year’s capital planning process. We have the report back from Mr. Kindt highlighting the required space in the school, as the Member has referred to in his Member’s statement. I think it is time to look at that on a going forward basis, so this will be part of the next year’s planning cycle. Mahsi.

Again, I thank the Minister for the report that was done on Mangilaluk School. The situation in the Mangilaluk School, I’m happy to hear the Minister on a go forward basis on the funding for next year, but I still feel strongly enough that I do want to put a motion into the House. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Jacobson. I didn’t hear a question there. Mr. Minister.

Mahsi, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, we are clearly listening to the Member and I appreciate the persistence that he’s been pushing forward. We are seriously going to consider this school for next year’s budget planning cycle. Mahsi, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Minister. Mr. Jacobson, do you have a motion? Go forward.

Yes, I do, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I move that the committee strongly recommends that the Department of Education, Culture and Employment work in close cooperation with the Beaufort-Delta Education Council to take all the steps necessary to establish a full-time high school teacher position in Sachs Harbour for 2010-11…

Wrong motion, Mr. Speaker. That’s my second one. I’m speaking on the Mangilaluk School extension.

Thank you, Mr. Jacobson. The motion is being distributed. The motion is in order. To the motion.

Question is being called.

Thank you, Mr. Jacobson. Committee, we’re on page 10-17, activity summary, Education, Culture and Employment, education and culture, operations expenditure summary. Mr. Krutko.

I, too, will be coming forward with a similar motion in regard to the community of Tsiigehtchic, because I believe that the community should have a high school teacher in the community. I think that if you’re going to deliver grades kindergarten to grade 9 and then also high school, you should have more than two teachers in a community. I think you can’t expect people to carry that large workload and, more importantly, expect to have quality education being provided in those communities. So, again, I will be bringing forward a similar motion dealing with the community of Tsiigehtchic. I think that it’s a similar arrangement as Sachs Harbour and I, again, will be coming forward with a motion.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Go forward with your motion.

Mr. Chair, I move that committee strongly recommends that the Department of Education, Culture and Employment work closely in close cooperation with the Beaufort-Delta Education Council to take all steps necessary to establish a full-time high school teacher position in Tsiigehtchic for the 2010-11 school year. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. The motion is being distributed. The motion is in order.

Question is being called.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Committee, I’m about to recognize the clock, but before we do, we’re on page 10-17, activity summary, Education, Culture and Employment, education and culture, operations expenditure summary, $181.532 million. Agreed? Ms. Bisaro has a comment. Go ahead, Ms. Bisaro.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just wanted to let you know I have questions. I thought you were going to recognize the clock. I can ask the

questions tomorrow as long as we don’t close the page. Thank you.

Thank you for that heads up, Ms. Bisaro. Recognizing the clock, I will now rise and report progress. Thank you to the witnesses. Sergeant-at-Arms, please escort the witnesses from the House.

Can I have the report of Committee of the Whole, please, Mr. Bromley?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, your committee has been considering Tabled Document 62-16(4), NWT Main Estimates, 2010-2011, and would like to report progress, with two motions being adopted. I move that the report of Committee of the Whole be concurred with.

Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Do we have a seconder? The honourable Member for Nunakput, Mr. Jacobson.
