Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, I wanted confirmation that the Department of Health and Social Services has responsibility for providing these services to special needs children under school age. I can take it from the Minister's answer, I believe, that her department does have responsibility and she has indicated that the services are provided in the communities by the health centres.

Once this need for early intervention has been identified, it usually involves assessment or treatment. She has indicated in her answer that the assessment is done at the health centre. Is there a program which covers the costs of treatment for pre-school children?
