Mr. Speaker, I am not sure how the Member arrives at the 10 days, but employees have 1.92 percent deducted from their biweekly pay cheque and that's what is used to annualize the cost of this leave program. I haven't done the calculation, maybe it comes to 10 days, but that's an agreement that's in the collective agreement. When we renegotiate, if the union wants to bring something forward, then we would be obligated to have a look at it. Thank you.
