I wasn’t here, but I understand that when the transfer of this program took place, there was an increase in the number of bodies required to administer the program. Now we are adding another five positions to administer this program. I understand the explanation on the increase and the dollars attributed to it. I am sure some is due to the five positions, and the rest, I gather, is due to increases in the amounts in terms of a subsidy. I’d like to ask the Minister, when can we expect that we will stop adding $5 million and $6 million per year to the Income Security program?
