Mr. Speaker, I am not against the decentralization of programs, as I have said in this House many times. I am saying if the cost is prohibited, as the Minister said, I am trying to find out what the costs are. We all know if there are adult students living in a residence, it is going to cost money to feed these people. That would be a cost in the transfer. If the program is offered in a different location now, those costs would have to be factored in. That is why my question is about the cost of the food, the other things that I talked about, et cetera. I understand student support, but the whole point of this transfer is that it wouldn't cost the college any extra money out of its base funds. The Minister just told me it wouldn't come out of base funds, it would come out of other money. If it is coming out of the other funds, there is only X number of dollars for student support, so where are those dollars and how much are they in the cost analysis. If it isn't there, where are they? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
