Thank you, Mr. Chairman. At this point, Mr. Chairman, we have simply gone across the bottom line of the budgets based upon the formula as it would have been. If this persists as a way of having to deal with a school base formula, we are going to have to go into the formula and readjust it. We're not exactly sure at this point how each board will deal with these cuts within the board. They may choose, in fact, to take a significant portion of the reductions out of administration or other areas of flexibility which could result in minimal effect on pupil-teacher ratios. We're not exactly sure because, as the Member knows, these are basically contributions without strings attached, with the exception of the delivery of the educational programs. Thank you.
