Thank you for that explanation there. Returning to my original question, the first point and the last point show that due to increasing costs, which are accruing as electricity bills, these new costs are accruing because we are no longer subsidizing. As each year goes by we spend less money subsidizing, and what happens is it disappears from the obvious expenditure and becomes part of our utility costs. My question is: What proportion of the millions that we’re now spending to subsidize beyond the annual Territorial Power Subsidy Program to help with electricity costs are we absorbing into government utilities that we just pay as the normal course of events?
