Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As the Member is aware, we are, as a government, facing significant financial constraints and that constraint is translated and transferred down to all the agencies and boards that we fund, which are health boards, education boards, housing boards, and all the other very many programs we run. Yellowknife Health and Social Services made a determination that it was not effective to run it with one midwife, so they made a decision to put these services on hold pending the result of the broader review. That’s what they’ve done and I supported their decision. Thank you.
