Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We will get that information to the Member. It’s certainly not many. I think it’s less than 50 since the inception of the appeals committee.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Yes, that would be normally the case. The apprentice would have to work with the apprenticeship officer and make sure the training was booked through our offices but, yes, that’s possible and the training would be recognized, yes.

Thank you, Madam Chair. As Members will likely remember, the Diamond Polishing Program at Aurora College did receive an award for being a world-class program and, yes, we are producing people who can move into the polishing factories and take jobs quite well. We’re aware that approximately 65 graduates of the program have been employed in Yellowknife in the secondary industry. We don’t track how many people were hired and basically did the apprenticeship type of training before the college started to get into the training. The first two years of training offered by the college didn’t...

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. One little comment before I answer the Member’s question. When I got a mortgage, I got it at the bank and I still had to reveal the most minute details of my life to the banker. If you get a mortgage, you do have to declare an awful lot of your private information.

As I said, this is the first step in moving our subsidy programs into one area in government. In the first year, nobody is going to see a change. It’s all going to be delivered through the LHOs; the same rules, the same standards, the same program. We are working with the standing committee to examine...

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Yes, we insist that if we offer the training in the Northwest Territories, that’s where we will pay for the apprentice to go to take the training.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. That carries on from the line above, so it's case management administration system, system enhancements. So those are a computer program that we use to keep track of income support and student financial assistance and other things like that. It's used across the Northwest Territories. Most of the hardware will be located here in Yellowknife.

Thank you, Madam Chair. It was a scheduled or expected reduction. It’s a residual that’s been left over from the training program we initiated some years ago. It’s not part of the overall budget reduction exercise.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I think it’s important in the first year, in particular, of the transfer of responsibility of the program, there will be absolutely no change in the administration. The program will still be delivered through the partnerships that were established by the Housing Corporation. The LHOs will be the agencies that deliver the program and there is no decision that there would be a change to that sometime in the future. Obviously we are going to look at how the program is structured and how it’s delivered, but any change is sometime down the road. We are not sure when that...

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. If you’d look at the top of page 9-27, you’ll see literacy funding. You’ll notice that the difference between the 2004-05 main and revised estimates and the main estimates for 2005-06 is $300,000. That’s the $300,000 I spoke about.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It's a result of there being 33 fewer students enrolled at the end of September this school year, compared to the previous school year.
