Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Actually, this isn't a reduction as a result of the decreased uptake for the funding. We were actually seeing an increase in pressure on the program for core funding because of new day homes and so on. What this is, is it's a $188,000 planned reduction in language nest funding. When the program for language nests was introduced over the three-year business plan, this amount, or what is left in the budget this year, is the amount that was projected in the first year that we proposed it. So this is a reduction in that budget. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
