Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will direct this to the Minister of Health. The council of the hamlet of Chesterfield Inlet felt that the workload for a single nurse stationed in the community of 331 is overwhelming, especially when she is on call for 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We feel that the well-being of the nurse is very important, and it would be less stressful for the nurse if there were two nurses stationed in the community. I would like to ask the Minister of Health if this letter, written November 19, 1991, has been responded to.

Mr. Speaker, I have not seen the letter, and if I could get a copy of that letter, I will endeavour to follow up on the request of the Member for some attention to be paid to that problem he has outlined in Chesterfield Inlet.
