Mr. Speaker, I have a return to written question asked by Mr. Villeneuve on October 20, 2006, regarding the sale of public housing initiative. Specifically, these questions related to the number of units sold to public housing clients over the past three years, and whether any of these units have been repossessed or have outstanding arrears.

Over the period in question, 16 public housing units have been sold under the sale of public housing initiative. Four of these units were sold to public housing clients.

As of January 31, 2007, no units sold under the sale of public housing initiative have been repossessed. Since the beginning of the initiative, only two clients have fallen into arrears under this initiative. One of these clients has repaid all outstanding arrears. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
