Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question will be directed to the Premier. It is resulting from some discussion that took place on Friday. I would like to seek clarification from the Premier from Hansard of October 31, 2001, page 635. The Premier, I quote, stated:
"We also created a chief of staff position. The chief of staff position is in fact an executive assistant position that has additional responsibilities."
Mr. Speaker, in unedited Hansard page 2694, we have the Premier stating:
"On years of service, for instance, that is the understanding that every deputy minister in this government has, that they will get one month for every year of service, not the number of years they were a deputy minister."
Referring to the contract. I would like to know from the Premier, was that position indeed a deputy minister position? Has this position now changed? Thank you.
