I would like to thank the Minister for that answer. I think for the interest of time here, I will ask two quick questions. One is that to get a little bit of a reason as to why home care almost dropped by a million dollars when what I am seeing in the communities I represent is a greater need for home care and also something of a family shelter. Right now it is difficult to set up any sort of family shelters in very small communities because of the nature of that type of work. It is difficult to place families in a shelter in the community and there is no actual infrastructure in place for that, but there is infrastructure in the larger centres where we might be able to see some sort of proposals from larger regional centres that support the smaller communities when it comes to this type of operation. I guess I am wondering if there has been or if there will be proposals coming for some sort of family shelters but there isn’t a substantial increase in that budget either, but my main interest for this is to ask why the budget dropped so immensely. Thank you.
