That is okay, Mr. Doyle. I do not wish to rush you, but the problem is that a situation has arisen whereby a private management company is already in.

The private management company is now dealing directly with these tenants and handing them the forms to go and claim the rent supplement. That company's officials are the people who are now setting the rent. They are now the people in charge. Can anything be done in the short term? I know one of the principal officers, Mr. Roger Harrington, is dealing with the issue and he did come back to me on it. I ask Mr. Doyle to ensure that a principal officer sits on top of this because it is an escalating problem.
