Yes, I wonder if it is possible if we could deal with Bill 9, is there some reason why we cannot deal with Bill 9, an Act to Amend the Insurance Act?

The only reason is that we are trying to get the paperwork that we had finished, if it could be down at the bottom, we can be ready to do Bill 9, as well.

For clarification purposes, are we going to deal with the bill to amend the Insurance Act, or are we saying we are going to delay it? That is all I am asking.

I think the Premier tried to tell us that. Let us deal with Bill 31, and Bill 32, and put Bill 9 on the third level. Mr. Todd.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the amendment to the Student Financial Assistance Act I am introducing today proposes that the amount of the revolving loan fund be increased from $11 million to $12 million in 1992-93, and to $13 million in 1993-94 and subsequent years.
This increase is proposed to accommodate the steady increase in the number of students with loans for post-secondary studies. In 1988-89 there were approximately 580 students accessing loans, and this year we anticipate approximately 700. It is possible by December, 1992, the loans granted could exceed the $11 million loan limit.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
