Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is directed to the Minister of Finance, Mr. Todd. It is regarding Bill 2, An Act to Amend the Public Service Act, which will be dealt with later on today. I understand that clause 3 revokes the articles in three collective bargaining agreements which state that the agreements wiII stay in force, even after their expiry date, until new agreements are concluded. This has understandably lead to significant confusion and consternation among organized government employees. However, it is my understanding that even with the passage of this bill, the collective bargaining agreements will continue to be in force as long as negotiations are continuing. Can the Minister tell me whether this is so and clarity this issue for the benefit of all unionized government employees?
