Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Like I said before, when the increase occurred, I instructed the department to try and reflect the food cost in the communities. Having received that instruction, the department officials used food cost surveys that were done by the Bureau of Statistics; our department didn't do the survey on their own. Thank you.
