Thank you, Mr. Chair. My question is what is is the property taxation revenue program that appears there? An additional $600,000 that does not appear to be offset by federal funding, what is this program? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the Property Assessment and Taxation Act is what makes the Department of Finance or Minister of Finance the taxation authority. We establish the mill rates. We collect the taxes, provide MACA with a list of those tax dollars that are collected for those communities that are taxable -- taxation communities, then MACA distributes the grant monies that are equivalent to the actual amount of those property taxes that are collected back to the community less an administration fee, and that's -- does come in at an average of $600,000. Thank you.

Okay, so this just represents the money that was collected in property taxes by municipalities that we are then returning back to municipalities, so it's just money sort of coming in and out. That's what this line item represents? Can the Minister clarify. Thank you.
