Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, I wrote to Members of the Legislative Assembly yesterday, October 18th, and outlined to them what had happened in the negotiations and the positions that were taken at the table. It is complex and detailed, Madam Speaker. I would be prepared to table this document in the House so that it can become the knowledge of the House. Thank you, Madam Speaker.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. My question is for Madam Premier. As she knows, I have been asking the Minister of Economic Development to formulate a policy for utilization of renewable resources. I would like to ask Madam Premier if she would support that type of initiative, being that it requires interdepartmental support. Thank you.

Madam Speaker, the honourable Member has spoken often about Renewable Resources policy support. I will take it he is speaking about the use of foodstuffs that could be used in institutions and otherwise. Madam Speaker, yes.

Madam Speaker, I believe that putting together such a policy is the work of an interdepartmental working group, to make sure we can, indeed, reach the objective of using, as much as possible, renewable resources for the support of programs and services that are provided for this government. Madam Speaker, I would also like to indicate to Members of this House that I am one of the very strong advocates that we should do so. Thank you, Madam Speaker.
