Very briefly, Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to second this nomination. I have had the pleasure of serving with Mr. Nerysoo since we were both elected to the 9th Legislative Assembly in 1979 and I concur with Mr. Lewis's earlier comments today that Mr. Nerysoo has been awaiting an opportunity like this for some years. He served this House well as Speaker but I think it is an appropriate time for him to apply his considerable experience to the Executive Council. I believe that he has the energy and the desire to do a good job and I have no hesitation in seconding this motion and wishing him and his other new colleagues on the Executive Council every success. I am confident they will do the best job they can in these difficult times and I will say again that I hope they will do so in a renewed climate of improved communication and cooperation. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
