Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, when I first became aware of that particular issue as outlined by my colleague, it raised concerns with me as well. This child information system that we had spent a lot of time developing was obviously not without its gaps. Steps are underway to make what I understand was an optional column area when you are filling out the forms to be filled out. We want to make it a requirement. We want to be able to track all the children in our system, so that we can do the proper planning, see what the trends are and to do that I agree with my colleague, we do need blue-chip information. We are down that road, but clearly we have things to do. From what I understand, this is a relatively straightforward kind of adjustment to make. The system is there and can be modified to make that kind of information not optional but required so that you can't proceed to fill in the form until you fill in all the required areas. You can't advance to the next part of the form. Thank you.
