Thank you for your question.
We understand the proposed subamendment to mean that the government is going to contribute to an estimate of the number of eligible children. The word “estimate” is used because the census can provide something close to the exact number, but it only represents one moment in time. Therefore, we use “estimate” because it's possible to confirm the exact number of children using the lists provided by school boards, for example.
So the answer to your question, Ms. Ashton, is yes.
