Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This is a very serious issue because a lot of the small construction companies which provide work in our communities do the labour only. They do not have the cash flow, for example, to bring in materials to do supply and erect and that is the reason for the labour-only contracts. Can the Minister assure this House that he will actually re-examine this area? This is a major change in direction in policy for this government. Can the Minister tell this House that he will re-examine this and see what the status is? Thank you.
