Mr. Speaker, as I have pointed out earlier, union representatives, teachers, government employees, present and former Cabinet Ministers, present and former MLAs are all aware this government has had on its books for quite a number of years the idea that we should get out of government staff housing and that somehow we have to develop a strategy which would create a more equitable situation in the communities amongst our employees and the private sector, and also among people who live in social housing. The question of whether I talked to union members about this particular strategy which was announced, no I have not, because the commitment we made to the unions during the negotiations on the collective agreement was, that during

1992, we would not do anything to change the rent of employees. We have lived up to this commitment. In 1993 we announced our intentions to raise the rents and to get out of staff housing. Thank you.
