Thank you, Mr. Speaker. First of all, the boards have the responsibility for delivery of programs and services that includes the responsibility for transportation. I cannot speak on the specific circumstances the honourable Member mentions. I will ask the department to get a status report from the Inuvik Regional Health and Social Services Board. I cannot speak on the appropriateness of it as well because I do not know what the diagnosis would have been by the health care professionals in this case, both in his constituency and the referring physician, that would have been based in Inuvik. But I will undertake to find out the circumstances surrounding this incident, speak to the honourable Member on it and determine what the circumstances were, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
