Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the Member is quite right. The seniors' subsidy for housing is almost $670,000 and I think that now has been devolved to the Department of Education through the social funding transfer in which we will now look at all social funds in one area and at that time, they will have to look at exactly the cost of these programs. Again, under the existing program they will have to go to the Department of Education, Culture and Employment for the subsidy, which presently we provide by way of the cost to us is $370,000. So those dollars will be coming out of the $30 million that will be transferred to Education, which will now be assessed through the Department of Education, Culture and Employment. Thank you.
