Mr. Chairman, I think I have to point out, and I mentioned before, that the Minister of Health and Social Services and I are developing an early childhood development plan that has $2 million identified in it. That plan will be forthcoming within several months. Certainly we will be sharing it with the Members as we finalize this and we can, at an appropriate time, share it with the Members once we have agreed to it Cabinet-wise. So that is the area that our effort is concentrated in, is to deal with issues such as Mr. Nitah has mentioned here.

The Early Childhood Development Action Plan has four priority areas. It deals with community supports; early childhood care and learning; pregnancies, births and infancy; parenting and family supports. Also included amongst those four headings is the issue of day cares. However, we are not in a position today to say we can do this or that beyond the programs that we already have. As I stated, we do have programs in place to support day care programs in terms of providing financial support for start-up operations and O and M operation costs, Mr. Chairman.
