Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, if it is a medical situation, then we would be working through the department to see what assistance is available. We would first look to see what the family can afford, what their own possible insurance could provide for. If it is a permanent disability, then we would consider it under social assistance to see if there is a qualification there. If it is support resources other than cash, then we would be working with social workers. We would be working with public health. We would be working with the health authorities to try to determine what supports are needed to in fact try to assist the family to keep the child at home. Thank you.
