Mr. Speaker, first of all, it is not $60 or $70 million the honourable Member refers to. There is, as I indicated, discussions ongoing with our officials right now and it is coming close to resolution. There is no point, Mr. Speaker, in myself as a Minister speaking to the federal Health Minister unless we cannot resolve this issue at a bureaucratic level. I do not see the need, as I indicated, unless there is a breakdown in negotiations and an impasse which has to be settled politically. Thank you.
