Mr. Chairman, the way the claims in the past have been settled, signed off, is the federal government agreed to the additional costs of implementation. This funding goes through what we call a vote 4/5 process that the federal government is actually forwarding the revenues to us so that we can carry on our portion of the implementation. Approximately, of the compensation and benefits, for example, of this category which identifies $550,000, I believe we’re looking in the neighbourhood of about $509,000 covered by the federal government. Then there are a few other smaller amounts that make up the amount; almost $525,000. Not right to the dollar -- I wouldn’t quote right to the dollar -- but approximately $525,000 is funded by the federal government in this area. Thank you.
