Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to thank the Member for that awe-inspiring question.

Mr. Speaker, this issue is not a new one. We've been trying to deal with this, and how we can deal with our federal counterparts around this issue. We have looked at a number of issues around our fiscal policy, and what we've looked at putting forward is a fiscal responsibility policy that would look at the overall fiscal situation of the government, our ability to borrow and finance that borrowing.

The issue of the overpayment itself, as the Member stated, was a decision made by a previous government. They were aware of the overpayment, and also aware of the payment plan that the federal government has in place, which is basically a three-year program once it has been identified. That has been flowing since the overpayment has been recognized. We are, in fact, coming up to the final year, where, in the next budget cycle, that overpayment has come due. We can look at ways of doing things differently. The previous government had looked at it as an interest-free loan and were aware that it would have to be paid back. In fact, we have a fair bit of that cash sitting, waiting to be repaid. Thank you.
