Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the current policy of the board for chronic pain does specifically mention chronic pain as a pain disorder and it does specifically say that compensation benefits can be provided for the lifetime of the recipient if necessary. So that is, in many ways, probably dealing with the constitutional requirement.
It's important to point out that the court decision of Justice Schuler states that it was the policy in effect in 2001 that was not in compliance with section 15 of the Charter. I want to point out, too, that the Auditor General, who did a study of the work of the Workers' Compensation Board at the direction of this House, clearly says in her report that the WCB should regularly consult with stakeholders and management, particularly in controversial areas such as pain disorders. So the WCB has direction from the Auditor General on this issue at the direction of this House to consult with stakeholders. That is, I believe, what they are intending to do. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
