Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I suggest that he verifies that fact again because I don't believe that's true. However, Mr. Speaker, I accept the Minister's position that he's going to fill these shifts and he'll pay what is required to do it. The important question that people have to ask is, is it going to cost us more to have locums than to keep the specialists? That is an important question. So I ask the Minister how much is the department paying for those who have been hired already -- because I'm assuming there's a contract there -- for the fee and the travel and the accommodation and associated costs for OBS gynecology specialists and the pediatric specialists that he has hired? How much is it, Mr. Speaker?
