Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, I think it has already been pointed out that the deputy minister was new to this department and the area of local government. The department had a number of experienced staff in senior management positions when the new deputy minister took over, some of them with 14 to 15 years continuous experience in the field. My question is, Madam
Speaker, were the senior management team consulted for their advice regarding the nature and timing of the reorganization? Thank you.
