Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as I mentioned before, this is not taking away benefits from anybody who was previously covered. In the previous policy, it was outdated and there were -- it was put in place where specific diseases and you had to have a specific disease to fall -- to be able to qualify for the program. Within that program, there was no -- like, it just -- it was a blanket so we didn't -- you know, and so this time what it's doing is people who are applying are going to be -- you know, if they make above the threshold, there's -- and that was part of the standing committee, that there's a sliding scale above the income threshold based on cost of living within the territories. That was a recommendation from the standing committee. That's being put into place in this policy.
Mr. Speaker, as for the four -- you know, for the prescription cost, that is if the person is making over, they're going to -- you know, if depending on how much their monthly costs for their medication is, then they may have to go at 4 percent. But if you're -- like, and the questions that I've asked even when we were doing this, and this was part of standing committee, if I'm -- we know that we may have adult children who live at home because affordability, and a household with parents, maybe they don't qualify for any benefits. It's not -- the people that they live with is not going to impact their threshold. So if they're going to school and they need access to health care and they don't fall within any of those other programs, they will be able to apply and qualify whereas before they wouldn't have had any access to dental service, any access to any pharmaceuticals, any access to supplies. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
