Thank you, Mr. Chair. We will be looking at a base adjustment for next year. I guess the trend for medical travel hasn’t been, even over the last number of years it’s gone up and gone down. Again, as the Minister stated, it is a bit of a demand-driven activity. So the rationale for the increase this year is an increase in the number of patients and also the cost to transport the patients as well. So it’s a combination of the two that’s driven this, but as I mentioned earlier, this will be one of the activities where we’ll be considering a base adjustment, given what we’ve seen over the last couple of years. Thank you.
