Thank you, Madam Chair. Just very briefly, there are 81 units out there with a condition rating lower than 60 percent and of those, half of those are, right now, slated for demolition or repair or fail. If there are privately owned units, homeownership units, then there is nothing preventing us from using affordable housing money to bring those up to a good standard as well. We don't necessarily have to just ignore the privately owned ones if people need assistance from us. So that will be another way. We're spending roughly $7 million on repairs and upgrades to public housing units this year. Thank you.
