Madam Chair, I am sorry if it's confusing the way it's laid out here. The $300 currently could be exempted from seizure. So you could be left with only $300 if you had a court order against you. That was the one amount. Now it varies, depending on whether you were looking after children. There was a certain amount, if that was the case, but $300 was the number you could be left with per month. Now we are saying the most that somebody can go after is up to 30 percent net of what you make each month. Thank you.
