Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the program will provide for the working poor an opportunity to have a rent reduction based on the amount of money earned and that's the total amount of money the family received. Anywhere up to $3,833 is the limit and below that, they can receive a reduction on their rent, Mr. Speaker. So it works in harmony with each other. Any funding that is provided, the child benefit portion is part of the family's income, but it really depends on the total income of the family. Thank you.
