Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to continue with my questions to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment. Although a different department, if a child is under foster care, the foster home is provided with support for extracurricular activities. Clearly, there is a disparity when you start considering the standard of care for children. Under income support, if the family has any extra money or goes out to make extra money, it is clawed back and, finally, if somebody pays for a kid to go to hockey, if they are on it, if that family is on income support, that money is clawed back. If they don’t declare it, it is breach and they are treated like criminals for gosh sakes.
My question to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment is: Since 2007, when he assumed office, what changes has he made to income support as Minister by his direction, to improve the lives of children whose families are on income support? Thank you.
