Committee Motion 2-16(2) To Delete $500,000 For Fort Smith Health Centre — HSS Committee Motion Not Carried
Consideration in Committee of the Whole of Bills and Other Matters

Mr. Chair, we are trying to stay in line with other jurisdictions, to have secure premises for the safety of the public — just a security fence with a completely climb-proof upper section design, to prevent breaches of the security perimeter. This is one area that has been identified by Corrections as needed to prevent incidents such as escapes. Going to the facility, there are no gates

or anything similar, so it’s a safety aspect for the public at large. Mahsi.
