Yeah, thank you. Thank you, Mr. Chair. And as a parent with young children in care, and I lost care and needed to find new arrangements, I can tell you it's not easy. And anyone who is still on those lists and does not have care, I have so much sympathy for. You know, it feels like smuggling narcotics, you know, like, flying under the radar to try to get access somewhere because there's so few spaces. So my concern is we can say 75 new spaces across -- you know, and that's great we're creating new spaces, but if the total need is 7500, then this is nothing, right, in the grand scheme of things. So how are we measuring the need in a useful way that we can actually point resources at it? Because if -- again, if the need is exponentially greater than 75, we have a lot more work to do in this area. Thank you.
