Yes, thank you, Madam Chairperson. The reason I ask the question is that we just got ourselves out where we ended up with a major deficit in which we had to make some fundamental changes to the way we deliver programs and services and also, cuts to personnel in the government to get out of the deficit, and I do not want to see ourselves getting into the situation where we found ourselves three and a half years ago. I would like to ask the Minister exactly what steps or measures are being taken to ensure that we do not find ourselves in a situation of a deficit in regard to the Deficit Elimination Act which was in place and also what is the status of the act at the present time?
