Mahsi, Madam Speaker. My question is for the Premier who is also the Minister responsible for Health and Social Services. First of all, I would like to welcome her back to the north and to this Legislative Assembly after her trip to China. My question is with regard to health services in Fort Simpson. We had hoped to increase the services in the hospital in Fort Simpson, but this government's policy is to bring everybody here as well as send in different teams to visit communities. Recently the eye team was in Fort Simpson to provide services to the people there. They provide good service, however, their stay was not long enough and they don't come often enough. There are complaints coming out of my constituency that this eye team -- when they do visit the communities -- is providing a very necessary service and they should stay as long as it takes for them to do all the different things they have to do with regard to seeing the number of people who request eye care. They should come more often or they should stay longer. I would like to ask the Minister if she could look into this matter to see if we could have better health services for the constituents I represent. Mahsi.
