Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, yesterday I had some questions for the Minister of Health and Social Services with regard to the employees at the Hay River Community Health Board. I would like to continue my line of questioning.

Mr. Speaker, when the department was looking at taking over the employees of the health board under the government, there was an amount set aside as to what the department thought it would cost them to do that. Unfortunately, that amount was grossly underestimated, which put a stop to that process. I wonder if the Minister could tell this House how much money this department has put aside in order to see parity brought to the members of the union in Hay River right now, or how much is the department anticipating it will cost to do that? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
