Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would like to be satisfied with that, but given the Minister's answers in the House last week, which seems to suggest that this decision is not as far in depth and breadth as they should be, I think that this was quite a decision. The courts said that the board violated natural justice, basically saying the process was denied. The board failed to ask for rehearing when it should have. The board failed to give notice to Mr. Valic when it should have. A tribunal fettered its discretion, meaning it didn't do its job. The tribunal did not look at the details of the case, and, also, the board policy violates equality rights under Charter in that it treats people with chronic condition differently than other conditions. So I'd like to ask the Minister, I think we...I don't want to see the board and Minister narrowing its actions to the decision only. So I'd like to know what broad policy changes the board is willing to get into. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
