Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, a cost benefit analysis for the Keewatin was not seen as an integral part of the change there as a direct result of the fact that the costs were already in place for bringing in services from outside. It is a matter of where they received those services from. In respect of why it was recommended in the case of the proposed Baffin changes because they were doing an entire shift of their service from one jurisdiction to a different jurisdiction which has, of course, financial implications based on the fee schedules and would have financial implications based on having to set up a new referral service, new boarding arrangements, new interpreter services and those types of things that would have to be put in place, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
