Mr. Chairman, I have to go by memory because I was raising some questions yesterday. I had a question about the concerns that the Union of Northern Workers had about the provisions in this act that they wanted to see addressed but they couldn't. Then I had a question about the implication of section 66, that we were wanting remain exempt because of the fact that we needed to have that exemption under the Human Rights Act. I do believe, Mr. Chairman, that there were a number of other questions that were raised, not only in the public hearing process, but also in the Accountability and Oversight committee. I believe one of the issues that was raised was about the fact that the government is proposing that there be a separate office created for the Public Service Act, rather than using the office that the government is proposing to create under the Human Rights Act that has already been passed. We are aware that implementation plans are being worked on. So I would like to ask the Minister what was the government's reasoning in going with the option of creating a separate office? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
