Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question will be for the Premier. Last week, I asked in this House from the Minister of Finance on the issue of equal pay benefits for excluded employees. At that time the Minister stated that he would consult with his Cabinet colleagues to see if they could extend the deadline to consider equal pay settlements for the excluded employees. Mr. Speaker, I have five more letters that I have received from librarians who are lumped in with wildlife officers into one classification code. The Minister explained last week that they would not be receiving benefits, or at least in letters it was explained they would not be receiving benefits, because they are in that classification code.

Now my question for the Premier is, the Minister of Finance agreed to consult his Cabinet colleagues and have some idea by today as to whether the deadline for these employees could be extended for consideration. Could the Minister tell us, the Premier tell us, if that meeting took place and if it will be extended? Thank you.
