Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I did not say that this practise is continuing. In fact, I believe that the out-of-territories treatment has dramatically been reduced. The boards continue to have the responsibility for designation of the referral for their clientele. They have the funds for the travel and for the treatment within their budget. So they determine where the most economical way of providing treatment to their constituents is and they determine best way to provide those services, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
