Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just changing gears for a moment, referring to the nurse practitioners, I brought this up yesterday in trying to get clarity on the rules that a nurse practitioner can presently practice under. As I have been made aware - and I am looking for correction or guidance on this issue - a nurse practitioner can only see one patient per hour. Can the Minister clarify that? If that's not the case and they are allowed to see more than one patient per hour, what are the rules guiding them specifically related to seeing patients on a regular basis? Are there any time requirements or specific requirements that they have to be monitored by a doctor or whatnot? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
