Community and family support services, the activity in one of the tasks and in there is social assistance. One of my concerns is that the food, clothing and shelter allowances are the basic needs of many people. I think it is too low. We have covered this already in other areas. I wanted to add to the discussion that went on in the past in this session, about social assistance and the food allowance, et cetera. I think it is low. There is a need to review it and possibly increase it after the review because there is definitely a need to increase that. I wanted to say that for the record. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
