Thank you, Mr. Speaker and good morning. Mr. Speaker, I reviewed my response to the Member in Hansard I have to admit that the response does make it appear as if the programs can only serve children. I appreciate the opportunity to clarify. In fact, the focus of the programs that are approved must be children from ages zero to six, but there is a clear recognition that families also play a role. Therefore there are a number of programs which have been approved that do serve parents as well as the children. I would say that there is a clear recognition that the whole family plays a part in dealing with children at risk. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
