Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have a return to oral question asked by Mrs. Marie-Jewell on November 23, on the alcohol and drug board of management. The decision to eliminate the board of management was made on April 13, 1992, by the Cabinet. At that point, the funding to operate the board was removed from the department's budget. However, at that time, the grants and contributions policy for Social Services required the board of management to review and make recommendations on all new requests for funding. The department reallocated money internally to allow the August 12,1992 meeting of the board to review new proposals.

Mr. Speaker, I have two more returns to oral questions.
