Mr. Chair, under the program delivery details, there’s $12 million for health authorities. I’ve raised this before in regard to the amount of supplementaries that have been spent in the authorities, especially in the Beaufort-Delta and the Stanton Health Authority. I added up the amount of supplementary expenditures over and above this budget amount and the budget for health authorities. They’ve spent something like $21 million in the Inuvik health board just on supplementary appropriation over and above their already expenditures. Realizing that this is what has been happening, and with $12.4 million under this budget item, what is this department doing to ensure that we have accountability, transparency, and we don’t allow this practice to continue to go forever and a day? It’s been going on for six years and nothing seems to be done about it.
