Thank you, Madam Chair. The O and M funding forced growth calculation includes population as well as other indicators, like the cost of utilities. There is a salary indicator – for example, the GNWT salary positions are used as an indicator – so if there’s an increase in the Collective Agreement, there’s a calculation for O and M funding to increase the funding based on those salary increases as well. Population is one of about four factors that are included in calculating forced growth for O and M.
