Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Are we putting restrictions on nurse practitioners if we have an expectation of them seeing 17 patients per day or are we putting a time limit on specific visits? For example, are we saying half-hour visits per patient or two per hour? If I say approximately two per hour on an eight-hour work day, that's 16 patients per day. So we are still getting dangerously close to what doctors see in a day. Maybe the Minister could quantify how we would define the number 17. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
