Mr. Speaker, my questions today are for the Minister of Health and Social Services, Ms. Lee. I wanted to get back to Stanton Territorial Hospital. In my Member’s statement I identified some previous decisions governments have made that, in my mind, have led to some substantial low morale and inadequate operational capacity at that hospital. Like I said in my statement, this is just one area.
I’d like to ask the Minister some questions in regard to the privatization of services at Stanton; I’m talking about housekeeping, laundry and food services. I’m wondering if the Minister knows how much those contracts cost and whether or not the department has done an analysis on the cost-benefit to having those contracts in place.
