Yes, thank you. Since 2004, we've had a fund called the territorial health initiative fund, and we've used it for special projects like creating NTHSSA and starting the primary care health reform. But we've also allocated $5 million in the current agreement each year towards the cost of medical travel. So this agreement expires on March the 31st this year, and so we did not include that amount of money in the budget because we do not yet have an assurance that we're going to have an extension to the territorial health initiative fund or for how much money.
