Mr. Chairman, I apologize if we weren't clear. There are three amendments we're talking about today. The amendment referring to the unpaid charges and transferring them to property taxes applies only to municipal taxation authorities, and if you look at the three different acts or three different classifications of communities, you'll see the wording is different. There is the opportunity. So it only applies to the municipal taxation authority. Right now there are only the tax-based communities that are part of that. This will apply to the hamlets and the charter communities once, and if, they decide to become taxation authorities, but they're not at that level yet. So it only applies to the tax-based municipalities, and only this portion is different for the three different categories of communities.
