Mr. Speaker, the honourable Member is quite correct about the process of determining additional social assistance requirements, as they relate to widows' pensions. Mr. Speaker, at this point in time, the department is not evaluating or looking into this area of pensions or social assistance. However, I will bring it to the attention of the department for our planning process. Perhaps this is an area we can look into to see if people are being fairly treated. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
