Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, without mentioning names, I know of organizations that have been contracted by the Department of Education, Culture and Employment to do assessments in the schools. They have determined that there is a large number of students in most communities that have FAS/FAE and have only assessed a few. More assessments are needed.

The commitment made by the Minister is not strong enough. There is more that is needed. If we are going to take advantage of the economic opportunities and prepare our students for the economy of the day, we need to do more. Can I get a stronger commitment from the department that they will do an assessment this summer so we can start planning for next season? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
