Thank you, Mr. Chair. The $8 million is going to medical travel. The $15 million, that's the difference between 2024-2025 and 2025-2026, has been shown elsewhere in the budget. And I can let you know about the things that those things moved to, which we've kind of already passed over, but there are things like leases, occupational health and safety positions, infection prevention and control positions, records management, some of the increase staffing in ICU and the emergency departments for Inuvik and Stanton. Those are things that have been, for a number of years, contributing to the historical deficit in the authorities which we've been monitoring, and so they were things that rose to the top when $15 million was identified and we were able to reallocate that funding over to those pressure areas. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
