Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I guess it’s kind of ironic, I was talking about this yesterday and the decision to transfer the Social Housing Program over to ECE three years ago or four years ago resulted in them needing to hire I think it was 11 or 12 new staff positions at ECE. This is coming before Members of this House requesting the establishment of five new positions for the administration of the program with the Housing Corporation. That’s exactly where it belongs. It was with the Housing Corporation. But there’s been no corresponding human resource plan on the 11 positions and the $1.2 million that ECE has been spending the last three years on the administration of this program. I find it almost hard to imagine that without that HR plan why we would, in good conscience, approve five more positions at the Housing Corporation when the government hasn’t even shown us what they’re doing with the 11 that were hired in the first place. So I would like to get a response to that.
