Mr. Speaker, certainly I would ask for feedback by noon. My meeting with the deputy ministers' committee is helping do the work on this late this afternoon. I want to work on the weekend on it and try to come up with something, but we need to get this finalized as quickly as possible. This rebate is not just based on fuel costs. It is based on trying to help people who most need help, particularly in the area of maintaining their homes. Heating is part of that. So it is based on trying to help those who most need help. We are trying to keep the relationship with heating costs as part of home maintenance. So it is more than just an across-the-board rebate to people all across the Territories for rising fuel costs. That is a different situation altogether. That might lead us to having some sort of universal program because everybody felt the heating cost prices. We are looking at trying to help those who need help.
