I will address the issue of rent supplement. I ask the witnesses to clarify rent supplement for me. Rent supplement was always administered by the Department of Social Welfare, is that correct? The process is now slowly changing to the housing assistance payment, HAP. What is the total figure for all of the assistance for rent, combining rent supplement, the rental accommodation scheme, RAS, and HAP?
