Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Cabinet decision in August was made with the Cabinet understanding very clearly that it was our decision and our position that further work and consultation on the one-rate zone be deferred until after an energy strategy is completed. The wording of the Cabinet decision we thought was clear. We revisited it recently. Politically we knew the decision we made. I will not get into an argument that it meant this and to somebody else it meant that. I asked the staff and the Department of Justice to verify what it was we understood. It should be understood, I guess, that as far as I know there was no communication between the Minister who was directed to initiate action to implement that decision and the Power Corporation. As the Minister indicated yesterday, a copy of the decision was given to the chairman of the Power Corporation and he should have understood it. He did not, and that was the extent, as far as I know, of the communication. I think that is where the difficulty is.
It was not clear to the chair and the board of the Power Corporation that this, in fact, was a clear decision of Cabinet and that they should be aware of it and adjust their planning to be in line with that. There was no directive given as far as I know, other than a copy of the Cabinet decision being given to the chair of the Power Corporation. Thank you.
