Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Member is right that I am unable to provide that information right now. I will endeavour to see what information we can get for the Member from our files, but I must express some caution. In the transfer of this program from Health and Social Services to the Department of Education, for some time, the program continued to be delivered by people who worked for Health and Social Services just as a part of their job. The administration function may not be completely clean in terms of being able to say, here is what it cost in the past and here is what it is costing us now. That is why some effort was put into the process over a couple of years to determine what is a good average figure to reimburse communities to deliver this function . Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
