Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. I don’t know, the Minister can correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought the income security guidelines and procedures were going to be reviewed. Because this particular winter and many others I’ve had lots of inquiries, most particularly with the seniors’ home heating subsidy to help low-income seniors pay for the cost of heating their homes. It’s often done just before December, but sometimes the most common one that I’ve had is because there are additional householders living with them and often it’s the case of a daughter or granddaughter or a male that’s living with the senior because they need assistance in living.
I’ve got this one particular case where the daughter does not have income tax and hasn’t done it in a while. I just want to know how firm they are on that. Is there an alternative or way around it? For various different reasons it’s going to take another month or so for her to get her income tax statements completed. In the meantime, the senior does need the fuel. Is there another way around addressing this situation?
