And significantly further to deliver pay that is disproportionately benefit. To hear the thoughts of the honorable lady, they should not be able to give a premonition and have to wait for another occasion. Thank you, mister speaker. Before i answer the question may i wish his wife all the best in the treatment she is going through at the moment. We have a manifesto commitment to the personal allowance meaning what we have done already by increasing the allowance identified in 201011 or 201617. We cut taxes for 30 Million People and we have taken all Million People out of an income tax altogether. That helped people out the lower end of the income. Angus robertson.

Extremely dependent on transportation and the Community Organizations that serve those folks have very independent work force. They cant remember the people that work in Affordable Housing also need to get where they need to go. We understand the point of view from but a technical perspective. The ta has done a great job to at least come up with a conceptual level to adequately in and they laid out a very nice game plan for you. A couple things i would point out is the communities of concern is a device full to focus equity. I would point out, remember transit dependent communities are not always low income communities and we need to think about both of them.

Thank you. Steve wu from chinatown cdc. I want to thank the ta staff for a great presentation and laying out a great framework for how to achieve equity in discussions about new transportation revenue. I think its very important as a board you take a step back and really examine how the revenue being discussed today is being reprogrammed especially with regard to equity.

Steve, i just wanted to clarify at the last ta Board Meeting that malcolm was anna pointed member of the task force but you said he was never a ppointed . We dont want to elaborate on that.
