Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just had one other question on human resources. Could the Minister give us a progress report on the efforts to recruit a new president for the Housing Corporation? How's that being done and when can we expect a new president to be in place? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Soon, I hope. The competition for the president closed last Friday. I don't know how long it takes to go through close to 150 applications.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. With regard to the district offices monitoring the operations of local housing organizations, what method do they use? Is it a monthly reporting relationship that they have, or would it be just annually, based on audits and so on? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. So, I would expect, then, that there wouldn't be any housing authorities that would be in any financial difficulties, similar to some of the municipal hamlets that are in that situation because of the more regular monitoring of this? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We monitor them fairly closely and work with them. The ones that follow our advice are in good shape. Those that don't aren't. But, they are all in fairly good shape. None are broke.
