Thank you, Mr. Chair. First of all, the Member was talking about sharing the credit, and I think I’ve given credit to committee in committee and I’ll do it publicly. A lot of the initiatives that we’ve worked on I think would be very difficult to put through if we didn’t have the support of committee and this Legislative Assembly. So that support is much appreciated.
The housing for devolution, as the Member called it, we’re looking at it as housing for staff in the communities and it won’t be just specifically earmarked. It’s not taking away from the work that we’re trying to do. We have 100 units that are identified for housing for staff. We kind of have an initial allocation right now. It’s not finalized yet, we’re working with that. As well, we still have the incentive program that we’re trying to work with the communities so they can provide some housing as well. I mean, I can assure the Member and this Assembly that these aren’t just specifically earmarked for any devolution positions that might be going to the communities. We just wanted to ensure, and I think as a government wanted to ensure, that there was some options available to those that might be moving into the community where positions might be available and we didn’t want to see anybody not wanting to go there because of issues with housing. So we’re trying to address all the issues we’ve had with housing in trying to improve on the stock we have in the community. We’ve improved some of the incentives that we’ve offered to developers to try and get them to put some units in the communities. So there’s a lot of work that’s ongoing there.
The children as dependents, now I’m not sure how it would work today because children are dependents, and I don’t know if the Member is specially talking about public housing units, but that has no effect on their rent or anything like that unless they were over 18 and they were employed, then that would be part of their household income. Pardon me?
