Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, is there any possibility that consideration could be given to these agencies such as the Canadian Mental Health Association that provide extremely valuable services to people in the territories? Is there any way that special consideration could be given to those organizations by moving their year-end up three months ahead of what the government is so that they know what their funding is for at least three months? I understand that a lot of them are having great difficulty because when they find out when the funds have been committed by the government, it is usually well into time periods when they have had to make commitments on office space and other services. Is there any way that the department can look at working with these organizations that are providing a valuable service, certainly I would anticipate much cheaper than the government can do, if there is any way that they can be assisted in the financial crunch that they run into at that time of the year? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
