Mr. Chairman, that moves into the Department of Health's responsibility, but Social Services and the Department of Health work together to determine the number. In my experience, it depends on how many people there are in the community or region. If there are only a few, the facilities, and the requirements and criteria to provide those facilities are fairly expensive because you are going into almost a hospital care situation. So we will be working with the Departments of Social Services and Health to identify the needs and then to try to get the justification to see if there are enough people to justify such a facility.
