As I indicated in my Member’s statement, I actually support the use of some private landlords to cover some of our public housing, but I do question when we actually guarantee high levels of rent even when the units aren’t filled, and also why would we be providing these landlords with maintenance fees. In situations where we’re actually covering the maintenance and guaranteeing these high rents, can the Minister tell me if he plans to discontinue the use of these types of rental agreements by not renewing the leases when they come due every five years? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
