Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I share the Member's intense interest in this area and see it as a very critical piece of support for the health and social services system. We are investing money in this. We have Infoway working with us and helping to fund our effort in electronic health records. We are looking at a pilot project, but we are looking at trying to make it system-wide. We have $459,000 dedicated to the electronic medical and patient records project. There is a preliminary analysis fee, which will be a system-wide review. It will embrace patient referral patterns both in and out of the Territories. We are going to be looking at using the whole $459,000 to get set up to do that and once that's clear, working with Infoway, we want to move on the actual implementation. Thank you.
