Mr. Chairman, the plan is to demolish and replace the existing building, not including the addition that we're talking about right now. This would result in a new treatment centre, constructed in two phases, and that includes this addition we're talking about at the present time. The funding for the second phase has been incorporated into year five of the department's 20 year capital forecast. Mr. Chairman, I think there are a lot of people around who know how much money has gone into this particular centre, so DPW has now come up with a plan to add on a little addition, knock down a part of it, and replace it in two phases. I think that, perhaps, we won't be throwing the money away. At least, I hope we won't, Mr. Chairman. Thank you.
