Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is addressed to the Premier. Yesterday, I raised the issue in the House that there was compelling legal evidence that pointed to the fact that Cabinet had probably contravened its own legislation, the Public Service Act, in coming to an agreement with the chief of staff.
During that debate and questions yesterday, the Premier made the following comment, and I refer to page 1415 of unedited Hansard for yesterday: "There is no job description for executive assistants. There never has been."
Mr. Speaker, I have here in the Ministerial Administrative Procedures Handbook, section 10, titled the Ministerial Executive Assistants, about nine pages of outlines, duties, responsibilities, pay ranges, and such.
My question to the Premier is was he blissfully unaware of this particular section of the administrative handbook for Ministers, or was he misleading the House? Could he clarify, please?
