Mr. Chairman, I would also ask the Minister another question regarding seniors. The Minister kind of touched on this issue the other day when I asked him in oral questions about seniors and reviewing the policy regarding seniors. My concern was that a lot of these policies have been in place since 1989. The caps on different spending are outdated. For example, the seniors' dental health plan is capped at $1,000 a year. That seems to be fairly low. Just looking from that aspect, I thought it would be in order that this policy be reviewed. The Minister has indicated that he has been looking at it. If he can give us a little more detail as to when this review is going to start, how long it is going to take, when can we expect to see the completion of the review and the recommendations?
