Thank you, Madam Speaker. I didn't get satisfaction on the answer. Why didn't the Minister, if he identified there was a mistake or a clerical error in the information, rush down to my office or send a note down to say there was a small mistake and we pause this issue for one moment until we get clear absolute numbers? Why didn't I get that note on Monday if he says it appeared two days ago? Why didn't he slow the process down, because I certainly would have given him the gracious opportunity to get the absolute number? Why didn't he come speak to me about that? Thank you, Madam Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. Mr. Krutko.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, I think because the information that the Member is talking about showed up in the hands of the press, I felt that it wasn't for me to release any more information until I was sure that I was following aboveboard that this information was not going to be released publicly and that we also realize whether we're breaching ATIPP legislation. So I had to ensure the protection of the clients were first ensured, that their information did not fall into the wrong envelope that would have ended up somewhere else. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Item 6, oral questions. The honourable Member for Nahendeh, Mr. Menicoche.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. My question is for the honourable Minister of Health and Social Services with respect to the proceedings between the NWT and B.C. health authorities interjurisdictional agreement that I requested back in the fall. I'm just wondering if there's any progress or if there's anything being done in this regard to help the residents of Fort Liard and their needs of accessing health in B.C. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. The honourable Minister of Health and Social Services, Mr. Miltenberger.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, I have talked about the issue with the deputy minister, as well as the CEO of the Deh Cho health authority and she's confirmed that in the past there was an arrangement, and I've indicated to her that we should look at trying to revise our current arrangement where things are done through Stanton to make them aware of that particular circumstance and recognize the unique situation the Member has talked about in this House between Fort Liard and Fort Nelson. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. Supplementary, Mr. Menicoche.

Thank you very much, Madam Speaker. Here is another example of where we're supposed to be getting something moving on this so I tell the residents of Fort Liard that we're going to be looking at this and addressing those needs, that it doesn't make financial sense to drive two hours and then fly all the way to Yellowknife to get their needs met. Recently I was back in Fort Liard and people with medical conditions were telling me I have to go all the way to Yellowknife to say yes, I have knee problems. If they can do that, if they can get this agreement off the ground or at least discussions going as soon as possible, I'm sure we can get better service for the needs of the residents of Fort Liard, Madam Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Mr. Miltenberger.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, I'll commit -- and I appreciate the time delay and frustration -- to having the issue resolved by the end of June and I'll keep the Member informed. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. Time for question period has lapsed. Mr. Yakeleya.
