Mr. Speaker, when students apply for student financial assistance, their family status and their needs are taken into consideration. So if it is a family who have preschool-aged children who need to be taken care of while the college student is at class, we take that into consideration. We do provide support, as a government, to all of the licensed day cares, and in this case, we're supporting this one Mr. Lafferty is speaking about. If it's needed for these children to be placed in day homes, then, of course, that would be taken into consideration as well. Now I would urge students at the college to talk with the college staff and get help in finding day homes in the event that this day care closes its doors soon. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
