Last week, I talked about the need for the MLAs and the constituency at large to get involved in this process. I'm hoping that if we do get concluded by late Wednesday night, we can have some serious discussion on this issue. I'm of the belief that we need to put a plan in place as quickly as possible and we need to implement some of it prior to 1999 if we're going to have any chance of two governments functioning in a reasonable way. There also has to be some balance in terms of political debate about what are incremental costs and what is being funded from within, et cetera.

In answer to my colleague, I don't have an actual time line right now because we need further discussion and I need to involve, as quickly as we can, the ordinary Members. I want to assure him that my philosophy is to move quickly, to put the plans in place that we're comfortable with, and I would go as far as saying, at the risk of being contradicted, that we should move prior to April 1, 1999 and not wait. Thank you.
