Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The actuarial work is currently under way between the Department of Safety and Public Services and the WCB. The WCB, of course, has a long history of dealing with actuaries, so they are enacting that right now to try to determine a variety of options as to how they will end up paying the long-term obligations for this responsibility when it is transferred. The current agreement, as I am sure my colleague knows, is that we have phased this transfer in over three years and the fiscal cost of it being phased in over three years is being paid for by this government. Thank you.
