Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We originally planned to prepare a legislative action paper on child welfare. However, the Departments of Justice and Social Services assured us that this would be completed by the fall session, based on the recommendations of the family law review. As a result, we chose not to pursue this issue ourselves. We remain disappointed at the apparent lack of progress in implementing the recommendations of the Family Law Review. The proposed reforms are too important to let slip away. We support the work done to date and we urge that it be continued on a priority basis.
