Mr. Speaker, the old board was provided with strategic direction on August 6th. That was laid out very clearly. That strategic direction will remain in effect. It is in effect with the interim board and I assume will be with the future one.
The interim board has been given direction to prepare an application based on the status quo plus the directions that the PUB would have issued them on the last application that was filed.
Mr. Speaker, we as a government want to have both the strategic direction of the Power Corporation and the energy strategy moving in the same direction. It does not do any of us any good to have them going off in different directions. The energy strategy is the responsibility of the Minister of Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development. It was a two-year assignment when it was contemplated and that carries us through to next June or so. It is possible that it would be done earlier and we hope that it would be done earlier. I cannot give any specific date on it. Thank you.
