Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, yesterday I was questioning the honourable Premier as to whether or not Cabinet gets involved in Ministers' decisions or if Ministers' decisions are in fact decisions made in consultation with Cabinet. I got the indication from the response, Mr. Speaker, that yes, that is the case. However, Mr. Speaker, I am not quite sure that the Hansards from yesterday support the statement. I noticed, Mr. Speaker, that on page 3, January 26th, Hansards, Mr. O'Brien was asking Mr. Ng about the health situation in the Keewatin. Mr. Ng responded that he is not sure what it is, but he sent a management committee down there to look into the problem and at this point in time he was not able to respond as to what the health situation was in the Keewatin. A few minutes later Mr. Speaker, I raised the issue with the Premier, and on page 13 the Premier's response is, I believe, "the health care in the Keewatin is quite adequate and does its purpose." Now, Mr. Speaker, I directed the question to the Premier, I wonder if the Premier could inform Mr. Ng that everything is all right in the Keewatin, and then Mr. Ng could inform Mr. O'Brien, and we could save some question period time. Thank you.
