...should attempt to present itself on behalf of the worker's advisor. It is not the advisor. The Minister has to take responsibility for even attempting to put this in front of us. Totally unacceptable. This is the kind of thing that we want to change, we want to see changed within the WCB. Quite frankly is the arrogance that's assumed in some areas here that it can go around and hold sway and essentially dictate what it wants instead of what we request. The Legislative Assembly is not some special interest group or discretionary body. We issued a serious recommendation here and it was very badly handled. This is unacceptable. This recommendation stays on the books for a proper and a full response at the earliest possible time by the worker's advisor as originally instructed, Mr. Chairman.
