Mahsi, Mr. Chair. This is what is before us, $6.5 million of new money that we’re moving forward on. Again, I have to remind that we spent well over $290 million over the last five years throughout the Northwest Territories and our overall education system, educational infrastructure, so we should be proud of the investment that we’ve undertaken in the communities, and we’ll continue to push that forward with the $6.5 million this year, and next year it could be a different number. We have to work with the Peer Review Committee as it goes through the overall capital infrastructure. At the end of the day, the decision lies there. We put so many projects in the hopper so at the end of the day they’ll provide us with $6.5 million, so that’s what we’re moving forward on.

When we talk about J.H. Sissons and other schools that need renovation, obviously there is a meeting that is happening with YK 1 and with the public, but at the same time, we have to keep in mind the reality, even in Yellowknife and the three school boards, the enrolment that we have in the overall school system, some as low as 30, 35 percent. This is a very serious issue that we all need to work together towards to come up with a solution, We as the department are trying to work with the school boards to identify those areas and have a plan of action, so we’re just waiting to hear from the school board. I believe there is a meeting that’s coming up. We want to move forward on that and we want to capture and deal with those low percentiles with enrolment.

Aurora College campus has been in discussion for a number of years, and the Member has alluded to that. We’re fully aware of that too. That is another one that at times goes in our overall capital infrastructure hopper, but at the end of the day it’s not approved. It’s an $80 million budget that it has to be earmarked and, as you know, it’s $125 million territorial-wide, and $80 million to put that part of the process, I think, would be a difficult task to move that forward. At the same time, my department has always been pushing that forward and we will continue to do so. We’re fully aware of the situation at the Aurora College campus here in Yellowknife. Then again, there are three campuses. Why couldn’t we maximize our program delivery in other campuses that we have? Those are ongoing discussions we are currently having with the Board of Governors and we want to make those changes.
