I realize it's a bit of a scramble there. I wasn't sure if you were the appropriate person to be asking or if it's next week's group.

Next week's group would have the exact amounts, but I believe I have something close here. For instance, in the main estimates for 2010-11, it was $30.8 million. I don't have extensive data for the year.

But you think it's approximately $34 million, somewhere around there now.

The Chair NDP Irene Mathyssen

I'm terribly sorry, but our time is finished.

I want to say thank you very much to the presenters, to the department for the Status of Women, for being here and providing us with this information. And thank you certainly to the committee.

Now at this point in time we are going to go in camera, so I will adjourn the committee meeting. We'll take a few minutes to clear the room, and we'll recommence with the subcommittee at about five o'clock or shortly thereafter.

Thank you very much.
