Mr. Speaker, I think we are all aware of the time constraints on the Minister, and he does have two portfolios. I was not trying to say he was trying to avoid the issue. All I am saying is that it is a volunteer board that you are talking about here. The chairman of our board is not being paid, and that person has to leave a position to attend any type of meeting or conference call.
So it is a very important issue and my question would be to the Minister when at the end of the session would he think would be a suitable time, so I could inform the hospital board so that person can get time off to do the meeting? Do you think it would be the 20th of October, or maybe would the Minister commit to meeting with myself, and maybe Mr. Roland could arrange a time that is conducive with his busy schedule?
