Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. So, Mr. Chair, the way that it was restructured was that 55 percent of the funding would come from education, culture and employment, and that funding was focused on things like wellness support workers or personal support workers, or it could be through Indigenous counsellors within schools. It was really up to the schools to determine what that looked like at the end of the day. The only ask from ECE is that there was component -- a component of prevention that was within it and so that it wasn't exclusive to clinical care for one-on-one experiences, that mental health really does become a part of the whole education experience for students that we're talking about it, that we are educating students and making them aware that absolutely everybody has mental health because we all have brains and so we all have an onus to take care of our brains, just like we take care of our bodies. And so it would in that case really be 100 percent of the student body in some way, shape, or form. As far as numbers for the clinical side of it, that would come from health and social services. Thank you.
