Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The Social Programs Committee addressed this issue in their report. I cannot support this motion either. I consider it to be contrary to the content of our report and the direction agreed to. We looked at it very carefully. We have addressed it with the Minister. We have responded to Mr. Picco. Unfortunately, in these times of restraint we all have to share the pain. I think Mr. Picco should keep that in mind. It is not something that we enjoyed doing, but we had to do a lot of things that we would rather not do. So, I cannot support this motion, Mr. Chairman.
