Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister responsible for the Department of Health and Social Services. Yesterday in this House, as we talked about trying to get funding for an aboriginal nurse to get her bachelor of education, she indicated she is not certain about what kind of latitude a Minister has to reprofile and reallocate funds.
Having had quite a few hours to research this issue, and using the free-wheeling style of the Minister responsible for the Department of Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development, in his budget, he presented Ministers with the ability to move and mix and match funding. Could the Minister indicate whether she now is clear on the authority she has? Would she have the authority to reallocate the paltry thousands of dollars that are required to send this nurse to school? Thank you.
