Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The department has no immediate plans to pave the highway from Sandy Lake to Fort Smith. However, a pavement overlay on the section of Highway No. 5 from kilometre 0 to 60 is scheduled for 1993, with the supporting gravel haul and crushing commencing in the winter of 1992.

Yes. I will talk to my department to see what can be done.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My department has been working with the communities to develop some sort of protection for boats: wharfs, that sort of thing. It is a new program that my department has taken on, and we will continue to work with the communities to see where we could help. I believe this is one of the more important projects that my department has taken on in the Nunavut region. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The funding question is throughout the Northwest Territories. We are looking at it at the present time and will review it further as time is coming nearer to the end of the fiscal year. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Perhaps the Minister of Finance could explain the problem that we are in. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The quarterly funding will continue as long as we are allowed to do so by the federal government. Thank you.

Mr. Speaker, the Member is correct in that all moneys that might be in departments are frozen at this time with regard to capital projects. They have to go to cabinet prior to being spent, even though the money might be in the department. I would like to inform the Member that I intend to seek cabinet approval to go after the money he is talking about, but I cannot assure the Member that the money will be there until I get that approval. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have a return to a question asked by Mr. Pudlat on December 11, 1991, concerning deferral of the school for Lake Harbour. I recognize how important building the new school is to the people of Lake Harbour. The design for the new school was completed in 1991-92. The new school is planned to be attached to the community gym. However, all capital plans are now being reviewed. Final decisions on capital projects will be proposed in the capital main estimates, to be considered at the next Legislative Assembly in the new year. Thank you.

I have a return to a question asked by Mrs. Marie-Jewell on December 11, regarding a policy on travel arrangements for students. A new procedure on student travel arrangements was initiated last year. Travel arrangements are now being made through travel agents in a student's home community, wherever possible. Letters were sent to all travel agencies in the NWT to see if they were interested in participating.

The travel agency in Fort Smith contacted the Department of Education a month ago to say that they had not received the letter but that they were interested in taking part. As all Christmas travel had already been arranged, the department made sure that the Fort Smith travel agency would be used by students from Fort Smith when they returned home at the end of this school year. The travel agency in Fort Smith was satisfied with this proposal. Hopefully, this will also result in less confusion in the future for students travelling home to Fort Smith.
