Thank you, Mr. Chair. I want to, at the outset, say that I echo Mr. Bromley’s comments. I think the Minister has heard me say a number of times that I’ve encountered constituents who have had great difficulties with income support. It is an area that is difficult, and I appreciate that it’s a difficult area for the department to staff and to keep trained up.
But it’s such an important area, and I give credit to Mr. Bromley’s request for dignity for everybody who has to go there. I think lots of times that’s not what comes first when people are going to income support. It’s not what they feel when they first go there, so I would urge the Minister to do everything he can to try and change some of that culture within this part of his department.
Knowing that there are so many difficulties with income support, I’d like to know from the Minister whether or not there is any contemplation of a review of the income support programs.
