Mr. Chairman, the responsibility for water issues rests with the federal government. When it comes to water quality, then our department, through environmental protection, monitors the water quality. It is not directly our responsibility. The provision of clean water to homes does fit within Health and Social Services' responsibilities. This is largely still a federal responsibility. Thank you.
