I'll be very surprised, Mr. Chairman, if that happens. I had to admit that I was kind of suspecting that the Minister might say that this was a Minister of Finance initiative to force the department to come back and justify any increases. But I can only take the Minister at face value, I guess.

On the other part of this special warrant, under foster care, we're showing an increase in cost of $1.483 million. I believe that this increases the amount of expenditure for this task by over 50 per cent to what was approved in the main estimates. Could the Minister advise whether or not that's the case and, if so, what is the cause for the increase?
