Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The funding provided to the municipality from the government will not be impacted. There will be an administrative impact on the municipality because, instead of placing all of the bills into one bill and sending it to the government, they will have to issue individual bills, but it is a cost that is recoverable from the program. The largest municipality which will be impacted will be Iqaluit. The other ones will not be impacted that greatly in the east because it only represents ten or 15 more bills which the municipality has to put out. They have to do the water tickets for each house anyway, so it is just a matter of taking the water ticket and sending out a bill to an individual and applying for a subsidy. Financially, it is not going to impact the municipality. The impact on the administration will be minimal.
