Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, Mr. Cuff and his team of associates do come very highly recommended. Mr. Chairman, I hope that Mr. Miltenberger feels that he has an adequate number of sound bites for the media in his remarks today.
I would like to suggest that Mr. Cuff is a very highly respected and very professional individual, and I am very embarrassed that in this House he should be referred to as things like "a knight in shining armour" and the other myriad of analogies and remarks that Mr. Miltenberger has made about Mr. Cuff. I am very sorry for that.
As far as the fear-mongering about Mr. Cuff's ability to provide this government with recommendations, I would like to, for the confidence of the people, assure them that we have chosen the best person we could find with experience in this area.
The recommendations that come forward from the Cuff review will be exactly that, and it will be myself and the Members of this Legislative Assembly who will responsibly work together to look at those recommendations and decide whether or not they should be implemented and whether those recommendations will benefit our system for the benefit of all our residents.
As to some background information on some of the previous work that Mr. Cuff has done, I am going to ask Ms. Ballantyne if she could outline a few more details of that. Thank you
