Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I believe the Member had said earlier he had read the act. I was advised by legal counsel that the responsibility to ensure that the board is appointed in keeping with the requirements of the act rests with the Executive Council. In fact, what it says is "there shall be a Board of Directors appointed by the Commissioner and the Executive Council". In layman's terms that is fully intended to mean.
