Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Mr. Yakeleya.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I wouldn’t make a comment on that one, but I’d like to. I know the Minister talked earlier about students going to Arctic College and having to leave their community. I understand that each local housing authority has their own policies. I’ll give you an example. In Tuktoyaktuk, I know that they allow that a student can go out for a couple of years and they just save the unit for when the student comes back. Is that a policy that the local housing authority makes out? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Mr. Villeneuve.

Thank you, Mr. Ramsay. Mr. Krutko.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Just in that regard, since it’s going to be officially changed on April 1st, wouldn’t it be fair for the Minister to actually come down on that date, to accompany me to Ulukhaktok for the name change? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Next I have Mr. Yakeleya.

Thank you. With regard to the other units, my calculation costs are for about 85 units. Are those on order already now too for the summer shipping season to other communities if required? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Mr. Villeneuve.

Thank you, Mr. Ramsay. Mr. Krutko.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As I indicated in my Member’s statement today, with the overwhelming support of the residents of Holman to change the name to Ulukhaktok in December 2005 and with my support, my question is to the Minister of ECE. When will the department implement the official name change to Ulukhaktok to reflect their culture? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
