Madam Speaker, I'd like to make it clear to the Premier I'm not questioning the decision to consolidate. I was part of the Special Committee on Health and Social Services that, in fact, recommended that step would be progressive. What I'd just like to ask the Minister again is, if she could enlighten us as to what thought has been given to the role of health boards. The Department of Health has regional health boards that oversee the delivery of programs at the regional level. The Department of Social Services has no equivalent boards. Will those health boards still be there and will the rump of the Social Services employees report through those boards? Has that been worked out? Thank you.
