Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister responsible for the Workers' Compensation Board with regard to the transfer of occupational health and safety to the WCB. I wonder if the Minister can provide his assurance and tell us what assurances we have that the inspectors will be able to impose penalties to shut down job sites and, if necessary, mine sites, without political interference.
