Thank you, Mr. Speaker. At this point, we do not have the capability right now to write-off that debt. However, we are trying to take a different approach and work with the community to resolve that. It is an ongoing process from day to day.
We recognize there is a debt problem. We have tried to deal within the context of the original operating agreement signed in 1988. We have no control over that. In the meantime, we continue to work with the hamlet to see about an increase to their water rates. Through that increase, we will try to recover some of the debt, probably within a year or two-year timeframe.
It is ongoing, as I said. I am repeating myself but again, it is the effort of our department to work with the municipality to deal with that situation. Thank you.
