Thank you, Madam Chair. For the purposes of this discussion, it was requested that we put more money back into Health and Social Services. We agreed to a number, 1.2 or so million dollars. The Minister of Health and Social Services has laid out where they would propose to spend that money, and we’re having the discussion today about the approval of

the quantum number and new money that was being put into these different areas. We’ve talked about some of them already, the Heritage Fund, the emergency response money, and we’re going to talk about others in a bit here.

The Minister has indicated that if there are discussions and this particular proposal for this forum doesn’t go ahead, that money, unless it’s cut out of this supp by this Legislature, will stay in there and will be spent appropriately, pending the outcome of those discussions.

Once again, I’ll as the Minister of Health and Social Services if he can speak to the specific question about this forum was in the works before this money was voted and the Member is asking if, in fact, there is some untoward chicanery going on here or shell game that we’re moving money around, laundering it or whatever. I’m not sure what sleight of hand means, but it does impute that we’re doing something untoward that wouldn’t stand scrutiny, and I don’t think that’s the case. We are here with new money, but I’ll ask the Minister to speak further to that very specific question by Mr. Bromley.
