Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as the Chalmers report indicated, we are obviously not doing enough. We are spending about $5 million a year. We have put together a response that is going to try to address some of the issues raised in this House by Members opposite in terms of qualifications, training, the pay for alcohol and drug workers. I am aware of the recommendation for a need for a detox centre. We are moving to make some adjustments here -- fundamental adjustments that will improve and better integrate that service with all the other services we provide at the community level. Thank you.
