Mr. John McKeon:
Yes. That dividend is a payment made to people who leave the live register. It allows people who have children to keep the qualified child portion of their payments. Under the working family payment, which is replacing the family income supplement, a differential is paid based on the gap between earnings and employment. Members of the committee will be familiar with that.
