Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I am glad the Member is referencing this particular funding proposal of $1 million. I do wish to point out that the funding for day cares is more than just infant space. It is for after hours, after school, as well as for preschool and for infant space. The funding is intended, Mr. Speaker, for start-ups as well as for operation and maintenance. That gives an opportunity for those communities who may not have a day care to apply for funding to start a day care, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
