Mr. Speaker, one of the things with the original amalgamation proposal that we said we would do, is reduce the management level and the bureaucracy in the administration by combining them together to one. Because the amalgamation proposal was rejected by original MLAs, that part of the penny savings is lost. The fact is that pretty much all of the departments have been stripped of any fat and inefficiencies that we traditionally had, but it is still important and it is still our obligation to keep looking at the duplications, inefficiencies, et cetera. That is what we are going to keep doing, Mr. Speaker.
