Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I appreciate the Minister's commitment to do that and I think that the Minister understands that the Social Programs committee cooperated with the Minister with regard to many of the budget items. I would be the first one to admit that this was one of them. It was always understood that this program was funded for $550,000 or near there last year and that they only spent $350,000, so we agreed that for any amount that they didn't spend, we would agree to cut that.

What I am understanding now is that the funding will only be half of the $350,000 needed, which will only be $180,000. Would the Minister talk to the board about reinstating that $180,000? Thank you.
