Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The department puts the exact same conditions for reporting on every single day care. We have gone to tremendous lengths, in the last year, to develop easy-to-understand forms and books, to outline how to start a day care, what the reporting requirements are, what the accountability structures are, and that is what we expect. We need to know that our children are safe. We need to have the reporting requirements in place, so that we know that children are being looked after properly, because the government puts its stamp on these places. If it is a regulated day care, we have to make sure that we have an adequate level of reporting. I can tell the Member, and all Members here, that people in our regional offices work, on a regular basis, with people who operate day homes and day cares, to help them to look for ways in which they can improve their operations. Thank you.
