Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I have two short questions to ask our guests. Regarding the $1,200 for each child under the age of six, paid in monthly instalments of $100, the federal government in its last budget said specifically that that would not affect the National Child Benefit. However, it says that next year the National Child Benefit Supplement will be eliminated. So there is already a cost related to the $1,200 a year, that is, the disappearance of the National Child Benefit Supplement. Even if it is not doing anything to the National Child Benefit, the government is still going to take tax from families that receive the $1,200 a year for each child under the age of six.
Have you estimated, out of the total of $9.6 billion for this program of $1,200 for each child under the age of six, how much tax recovery by the federal government annually, including the National Child Benefit Supplement, will be worth?
