Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like, again, to direct my question to the Minister of Social Services. Mr. Speaker, I think I made a statement this week on teen pregnancy, in which I stated that these young girls are usually left alone and really don't have any support. The Minister said that a young girl who goes into the hospital to have her child, is not given counselling unless she asks for it. I would like to ask the Minister whether or not those young girls are consulted about whether they require counselling or assistance with what they should do with their child?
