Thank you, Mr. Chair, and it just looks at improving student outcomes, as well as strengthening teacher professional development and the supports that they have. It is going to be a three-year pilot, so it is like much of our other Education Renewal Initiatives that we are doing throughout the Northwest Territories. It is going to be piloted this coming school year and making sure that we are improving teacher and student wellness, strengthening the teachers and learning, and also strengthening cultural programs' sense of identity, and increasing system-wide accountability with the results. So...

Thank you, Mr. Chair. We do review the program on a yearly basis in terms of how we fund income assistance clients. It is reviewed on a yearly basis. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. The Aurora College was given a target for reductions. They worked in collaboration with our department, looked at the programs within the services that they provide, and as I have mentioned and said in the House, the graduation rates were very low coming out of these two programs. That was the decision that was made by both the Aurora College and our department moving forward. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

There could be a few different reasons for that. It could be that we just didn't spend any money that year or that there was no uptake on the program itself.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Currently, we do have partnerships; that's already happening in some of the small communities, specifically with our Aboriginal governments with the access training, so we're definitely looking at partnerships to utilize our community learning centres a bit more and providing that training and skill development that our residents need. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, I do. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. It is over $150 million that we allocate throughout the territories to all the education authorities. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. We do have that opportunity when we are sitting at the FTP meetings. Currently we are going to be meeting with the Francophonie at the end of March and we are going to be working on how we can look at getting more French-speaking people into the Northwest Territories working and meeting some of the demands for that type of work, but right now it's more done at the FTP level. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. In the previous fiscal year, that funding was not fully utilized. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair, and we have been hearing all the feedback already from the back-and-forth, and it is something that we can bring to our rural and remote communities to get some feedback as well as direction, but also to the Social Development Committee as well. That is the oversight for this department, so we are definitely looking for feedback. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
