Madam Speaker, I will try to be specific to help the Member. In the drug and alcohol programs, for instance, there are agreements between communities and this government which are signed agreements that point out what the goals and objectives of the programs are, and what the community agrees to do in carrying out their part of the deal. Those are written agreements and are monitored and evaluated on a yearly basis.
I think, generally, as with other programs such as family violence, victims' assistance, and victims' services programs, are all generally well-received by communities. They are seen as good, positive programs by this government and by the public. Where we have problems is with the amount of money and resources we can allocate to these programs and the flexibility we have in flipping money from one program to another. There is insufficient flexibility, as far as communities are concerned. They cannot, for instance, take money allocated for a mental health worker and easily flip it into a drug and alcohol program.
These are the types of problems we have. That is a major evaluation shared by everybody. Again, the strategy that we have set out to deliver to this Legislature this coming session is well aware that it is and is going to be due to a major demand on the part of the communities. Thank you.
