Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is addressed to the Minister responsible for Health and Social Services, regarding the tabled report entitled Our Communities, Our Decision: Let's Get On With It!. I had the opportunity of talking with a board member about this to flesh out some of the comments that were made, since they were fairly vague in some areas and open to significant clarification.
My first question to the Minister is: given the fact that since 1994, I estimate Health and Social Services has spent $2 million on studies and strategic planning. It seems like the department of perpetual study. What are the plans to actually do some of these things? To do exactly what the report says, "let's get on with it"?
