Madam Speaker, on the issue of tuberculosis in Rae, the Mackenzie regional health staff are now insisting that all prescribed medicine be taken under observation for six to nine months. The whole population of the area is targeted for tuberculosis screening. As well, there are some issues in terms of the social conditions of these communities in trying to identify these areas which can be corrected. They are creating a presence and spreading of tuberculosis. Thank you, Madam Speaker.
