Thank you, Mr. Chair. This is funding that goes to authorities for a number of professional development related initiatives. The breakdown is $40,000 for a casual relief pool, $25,000 is for specialty training, $400,000 is for community health nurse development, $640,000 is for the Graduate Nurse Placement Program, $240,000 is for the Social Work Graduate Placement and about $1 million is for the Professional Development Initiative. This is funding that provides support for any health professional or allied health professional in our system once a year to do the upgrading and training they need to remain certified. We have funding in there, as well, for a residency program. Thank you.
