Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, this issue is one where there has not been consistency in the past. My account for not being aware of this information is due to, in all probability, my memory and not being aware of that particular detail. I do know that there is no annual increase to NGOs that are built in as forced growth. I know that the concern from women's shelters, from every other organization that I have talked to, has been that often their budgets have been pegged at a certain level as they haven't seen any increases for salaries, cost of doing business or anything. In this case, the YWCA was fortunate; but the reality is that we don't have an ongoing method to build it into our budgets at this point. Thank you.
