Mr. Chairman, the amount that goes toward the debt is $320,000, not $400,000. We are helping them with $320,000. They still have $130,000 deficit that they have to work their way out of, roughly $130,000. In addition to that, there is as I mentioned before, $85,000 that goes toward the expertise and so on to have a debt recovery plan. In our view, this is a reasonable amount of debt for the community to be able to handle without driving them back under again. Again, if we leave it beyond their means, it is not going to resolve the problem. Thank you.
