Mr. Chairman, I cannot speak to the exact arrangements. I cannot recall them. But I do know for a treatment centre to be able to operate a viable program, there has to be guaranteed commitments made by the boards that refer patients. There has to be an arrangement for the fixed cost to be covered by the treatment centres, so they are protected against no-shows. Most of the treatment centres are moving towards a more continuous form of intake of patients, so the suggestion would not be they would be guaranteed for necessarily the full 28 or 35 day period. But I do not know exactly what the arrangements will be for each treatment centre. Thank you.
