Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have some questions about the transfer of program responsibility for indigent seniors and persons with disabilities to the Income Assistance Program under Education. As income support, as I understand it, is for productive choices. What kind of criteria will these folks be under? Is there going to be an expectation for indigent seniors that they have to make productive choices of some kind, such as seeking employment? Are they looking at payrolling these folks? Doing it just for the convenience of doing that? What benefit will there be to these particular concerned individuals? Thank you.
