I’ve been here 19 years. I guess I can wait one day to hear what the Minister

has to say. I think there are some very good ideas out there, definitely from this side of the House, probably from some people in the public who could participate with us in an exercise to look at how we can address the situation.

The Minister mentioned the vacancy in our public service. Just in our employ, or within our purview there are approximately 800 vacant positions that are not filled, so there are many, many fronts on which we can work.

I’d like to ask the Minister, how far will he cast his net of acquiring assistance in helping to come up with initiatives that will address this situation?
