Mr. Chairman, there was a vacancy factor added in, which was 10 percent. As we all know, teachers, in most cases, leave the communities for their summer holidays and they are gone all summer, so someone had to cover the accommodation costs. The same thing with different professions who do provide services in the communities. They do come and go and, because of that, having the units unoccupied for that period of time during the year. That was what that thing was built in for. With regard to the cost, maybe I will...So that is sort of the reason for having the 10 percent vacancy built in there, to ensure that we are able to cover off our costs, so that we weren't losing money for that time that those units were sitting empty. Thank you.
