Thank you, Mr. Chair. I do not have a problem with this, but does the Corporation have the budget reduction number handy, just so I have got that for reference so that I know what our contributions is, how it is being declined or reduced for next year? The fiscal strategy, what that total amount is. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Just to make it clear to the public, then, the reduction strategy, or the fiscal strategy, of Cabinet is driving down the contribution to the Housing Corporation by $1.3 million. I do not agree with that, and I just wanted to get it on the record. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
