My question was when was the last time the rates were reviewed and you are saying there is work going on in the department right now to look at that. At one point, there was consideration given to a program similar to what they have in Alberta that would actually see different types of foster homes licensed, the parents trained to take care of different children with different types of needs. So in fact you could have three different levels of foster homes, perhaps ones who would do just short-term placements that might not require too much training while the children are in transition to something more different, more permanent or more extensive. You might have another type of training available to a home that would be licensed to deal with children and their behaviour problems, actually accrediting different homes with training for the parents to look after these children. What is the status of that work? Thank you.
