The fact remains that there are cuts in the budget for 2014-15.

I'm not saying you're wrong. I just don't recall any reductions on that front. I can look into the budget, but in terms of how the programs will be managed, it's better to ask the department that question.

Mrs. Day, it might be useful to give these folks specific details from the main estimates on the issue.

I would have to do a bit of research, but I can easily find the information.

Having said that, this brings us to the end of our meeting.
I thank the three witnesses—particularly Mr. Matthews, who stayed with us for a good hour and a half—for participating in the second part of our meeting.
I thank the members of the committee for their patience and the time they have devoted to this meeting.
On that note, I will suspend the meeting for a few minutes while we go in camera. We have some business items we need to discuss. Thank you once again.
