Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Yes, Mr. Speaker, in this instance, the debt has gone over to the FMBS and they are sending notices in the mail requesting payment of some kind. Even $50 a month for a student is a lot to pay, Mr. Speaker. I am just wondering again, FMBS and ECE not really working together. These are real people, Mr. Speaker, with real problems and each situation is unique. I think, as a department, we're trying to send our students out to get an education and come back and be productive citizens and we need to find a way to be flexible. I know we have rules, I know we have policies that are in place, but we need some flexibility. I'm just wondering if the Minister is -- and I know there have been other cases like this, this is not a new issue -- prepared to have some flexibility in these situations. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
