Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am sure the Member is aware of how the budget process works. The department does an assessment of programs and takes a look at them. It takes a look at available resources and ranks by order of priority the programs and then determines what programs can fit within the available resources. This program was examined in recognition that most of the programs of this department are aimed at young people and youth. It was felt there are many other youth programs in government and this program was a duplication of effort. Therefore, it could be cut. As I have said, the whole driving force is the budget situation. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
