Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would like to press the Minister on the idea, the initiative, of a comprehensive energy strategy. I, as much as anybody around the Assembly, appreciate the workload and the number of agendas that we already have on our plate. However, Mr. Chairman, I do not see that as a reason to avoid or defer making some planning. Even if it is an initiative that we cannot engage in right away, or perhaps see results within the next few months, I believe it is something that we should attach a strong profile to, a strong priority to.
I would ask the Minister if he might consider putting together a framework that would suggest how this could be put together, and a reasonable timeframe in accordance with all the other things that are going on, that says when this could be started? How long it could take to happen? We are here for another three years in this Assembly, and of course there will be another government after us. These kind of things I think can and should be engaged in, with a lot of time to make sure a good job is done.
Can the Minister take a look at that kind of an approach?
