Thank you, Mr. Chair. So this was one of several projects with respect to long-term care that I believe it was in and around or immediately after the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and a recognition across Canada around long-term care and the direction that long-term care might need to go, namely, to be a shift towards more operations rather than capital in order to help seniors and elders remain in their homes with support rather than have to be in long-term care situations. And with that and with that change, a number of projects were re-examined. This is one of them and, in that sense, it went back to its planning stage, and that is what the funding is -- there is still now funding for that to happen. That is expected. That fulsome re-examination of planning is expected and planned for 2024-2025. And then once that is then -- once that planning is done, it would be returning back through the capital planning process. Thank you.
