Madam Chair, this year we're hoping that because of the negotiated contract with the labour market supplement that applies now to child and family services workers, and there's different areas in that. I don't have the collective agreement in front of me to all of the different parts of child and family services. But that would -- you know, I would hope that that would help to encourage that. I know that within the department, it is a challenging department and, you know -- and I think that working, you know -- many people working in that area, it is a difficult area, department, to work on, so supporting those staff, and I think that's part of, like, the plan, you know, and then supporting with our recruitment and retention, is to making sure that we're reaching out to them as well to know within the next -- you know, for the plan is to how to support those staff so that they feel -- you know, stay in their positions. Thank you, Madam Chair.
