Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as I understand it, each health and social services board is responsible for placing residents from their region in an assisted living situation, if one is needed. As I understand it, with our small population, it is difficult for them to sometimes find three or four residents to put into one setting so they can make the cost reasonable to run these places. Authorities are often forced to make southern placements. What is the department going to do to address this situation?
