A note to my colleagues in the House, I have a copy of the letter from Mr. Jeriel advising me that the Baffin hospital board has rejected their proposal that they be a partner in the development of this hospital facility. I am prepared to move forward when we get confirmation that the Baffin Board is prepared to accept 1) that there has to be public/private partnership approach to this issue; 2) that it is within the fiscal framework that we outlined to them at a meeting that I thought we had an agreement on and found out later we did not. So I am not prepared to move and any further discussions until such time as I get clarity on those two issues.
