Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We believe it's working, Mr. Speaker. It provides a number of areas of support to the territorial support programs for various children's programs throughout the Territories. That's provided to the regions and, in turn, the communities. In addition, there is money that goes directly into the hands of the working poor. So we feel that it does supplement their incomes, Mr. Speaker.
