Thank you, Madam Chair. This is not reflected right now in the 2020-2021 mains. As to whether or not they think they're adequately funded, there was not an application made for growth in this particular item in the budget for the Child and Family Services. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. I would like to go back to supplementary health programs. The briefing material indicates that the budget for 2019-2020 is more than it is for the year. Can the Minister talk about what the total amount of the budget is for Extended Health Benefits in Health and Social Services? Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. The total shortfall is $772,000. There has been some ability to reallocate internally, and that is what has brought the supplementary appropriation number down to being $374,000, but the actual total shortfall is $772,000. Thank you, Madam Chair.
