Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question would be directed to the Minister responsible for Health and Social Services, Mr. Ng. Mr. Ng made a statement today regarding breast cancer screening, and that was an issue that was discussed at some level here in this forum before we broke the last time. In his statement he says each board is free to deliver its services including breast cancer screening. He says that the Department of Health and Social Services provides each board with funding to offer the full range of services and goes on to speak of the Strategic Investment Fund that is available. I would like to know from the Minister, is there a certain formula that has to be followed, cost-shared program, that the health boards can plug into to try and achieve some of this breast cancer screening? Thank you.
