I think that the two are actually related. Training could be an issue. I don’t believe that all the staff is aware that there are ways to share information legally and work together. The departments tend to live in silos. Client consent is effective. Would the Premier commit to ensure that staff from senior managers down to program delivery staff are adequately trained and understand the concepts of consent for release and sharing of information? I believe that many residents wouldn’t resist releasing their information if they understand why it is in their best interest and how it could help government provide holistic care. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
