Mr. Speaker, I can probably think of a number of things in the past year where the department has wasted $30,000 at the drop of a hat. I’ve discussed some of those issues with the Minister previously. What I’d like to get a better understanding of is, if we leave this up to the department…. We all know how slow government moves. The program might not ever happen. This is something that can happen, and it can have positive results for parents across the territory.
I want to ask the Minister

this has been in place
for a year: why haven’t they funded a program like this to ensure the safe transport of our children in our territory?
