Mr. Speaker, the board, as I understand it, and the corporation is set up to make loans; to invest in business initiatives that are considered high risk and basically out of range of consideration by banks. If there is difficulty with the board conducting business within the parameters of the legislation, then we should have a concern. If there is concern that the board is biased or unable to conduct itself because of considerations that are brought to the attention of myself, as the Minister, then the easiest thing would be to address the deficiency of the board

members themselves and to remove any suggestion that board members, collectively or individually, are unable to do good service to the public as they were appointed to do. That would be my own suggestion. If there are good suggestions as to why the board cannot continue to carry out the function of being a lender of money, then if that is preventing you ... (inaudible) ... perhaps the whole institution would have to be reviewed. That isn't a consideration at this time. Thank you.
