Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The Member’s right in that there are a number of reasons that are put forward, there is no magic bullet saying exactly ABC are causing a deficit of XYZ.

Having said that, the Cabinet, the government is working through looking at some of the cost drivers in health care funding under the Refocusing Government Strategic Initiatives Committee, and I believe that they will be making a presentation to Regular Members on the work that we are doing. There are lots of elements in the health care system that are contributing to costs -- our demographics, general health conditions of our people -- and also within our system, out of the

seven health authorities that we have, all of the authorities are doing well financially in terms of balancing their budget or accumulating small to large surplus, except for Stanton and Beaufort-Delta. The two common factors of those authorities and the elements within those operations that are causing cost overruns are doctor services, specialist services, medical travel, many areas where the costs are hard to control because they are demand driven. That is a big area and that is the area that is under review to see how we can better, not control costs, but find efficiencies where we can and where exactly we can improve. That’s the work of program review and there’s a lot of good work being done there. Thank you.
