Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, I think the Minister of Finance has undoubtedly heard the clear concern of the Standing Committee on Finance and of Members on this side of the House that the social issues are important. Just last Friday, Members of this House unanimously approved a motion to finally do something about the wages of shelter care workers. I would like to ask the Minister of Finance, since the budget development process is geared to identifying priorities in developing the coming year's budget, are social issues one of the priorities that the Minister of Finance will bear in mind in developing the budget for the 1995-96 O and M main estimates? Thank you.
