(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Chairman. First of all, I would like to recognize the week that we have to speak our language and recognize our native language. I have no real concerns on the changes in the compensation package for the MLAs, nor on the pension plan. I have one concern. Regarding the constituency allowance, mine was lowered by $8,000. 1 realize when I was campaigning, people in my constituency said that we don't visit them often enough and we don't make them aware of what is happening to the work that we are doing. That is the only concern I wanted to express, Mr. Chairman.
