Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Being relatively new to the file, I know that I've talked to my colleague, the previous Minister, about the status of this and I understand that he'd gone to the standing committee with a proposal for moving to an employment equity process, but the committee isn't in favour of that. So clearly we're in a position where we have to take a look at the affirmative action plan and see if we can come up with something that Members of this House are supportive of, if we're going to make any changes. As things stand right now, the affirmative action policy is the one that governs the operations of this government and I will certainly look to work with Members of this House to see what we can do to improve on its results. Thank you.
