Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The current facility was constructed in 1983 and does not meet the current needs of the community and of the region. This is going to be a level B facility being constructed there and should be roughly double the size of the current building. So, essentially what is planned is the long-term care facility in Fort Simpson is still a building that is useable, still very functional and still meets the needs of the long-term care in Fort Simpson and the area that uses it. So that part of the building will remain and the new health centre without the long-term care will be constructed. The plan is it will be constructed across the road. Thank you.
