Mr. Speaker, I cannot speak to the previous times when Cabinet gave the Power Corporation very specific directives, whether that is in regard to an application they filed, another one with regard to not laying off staff. That was before I was responsible.
With regard to this particular case, as I said, we had a Cabinet meeting on October 3rd. We reviewed this. We debated what the direction was. On October 8th, the Premier, as Chair of Cabinet, told me that this was his interpretation after reviewing it with staff and with legal advice, and that I should direct the Power Corporation to withdraw their application. Following that, we had a Cabinet meeting and there was further direction provided to the Power Corporation on October 11th. Thank you.
