Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I understand the Member's concern. As I have stated, clients are made aware of the items that are considered unearned income. They are told there may be occasions when they receive income that has to be taken back and their particular cheque is reduced. So on a monthly basis, the income of the individual is not reduced. They get it at one time of the month, a certain amount, and later in the month they may receive a reduced cheque. So their monthly income remains the same, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
