Mr. Speaker, February 5th must have been a very busy day for the Minister responsible for the Workers'
Compensation Board. Honourable Members will recall that back in December I had posed several written questions. On February 5th, exactly one week before this House was scheduled to sit, the Minister chose to provide me with his response and sent me a package with over 100 pages to read.

I have gone through the material, and I am interested in the Minister's assurance that the chairman of the Workers' Compensation Board has, in his public presentation, requested input and placed considerable emphasis on his desire to meet with the groups and discuss various issues.
Mr. Speaker, I wonder if the Minister could tell this House how many times the chairman has met with the newly formed support group of injured workers in Yellowknife.
