Thank you, Madam Chair. It is unfortunate to do this, but a Member can’t walk into a Chamber during an actual calling of a vote as it has been called, so I would say that it is my observation that there are issues with that vote. Thank you.

Thank you, give me just a moment here to consult with the...
I think at this time we will take a break for supper. After supper we will come back and discuss the motion. Thank you.

Consideration in Committee of the Whole of Bills and Other Matters
The Chair Jane Groenewegen
I’d like to call Committee of the Whole back to order. Just before the break there was a motion on the floor. There was a motion that was read and about to be voted on and a Member was not in their seat at the time that that motion was read, so their vote cannot be counted. It was counted, so when we take that vote away then we have a tie.
The principle applied is this: where if no further discussion is possible, a decision should not be taken except by a majority. So that leaves it to the Chair to break the tie. According to our policies, our traditions, I will be voting against the motion. The motion is defeated.
---Defeated

Thank you, Madam Chair. I guess I want to mention both the integrated case management work, which I assume is in this division, and the wellness court, which I also assume is in this division. I know these are new initiatives and I’m wondering if I’m correct that the dollars that the Minister announced are listed on this page somewhere, the $807,000, I believe it was, for integrated case management, $300,000 for wellness court. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. I understand that the wellness court will rely quite heavily on the case management program. I wonder if the Minister will just explain that to me, if I understand that. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. For individuals to participate in the wellness court they will require considerable support and case management. During the coming year, we have resources coming to the wellness court for two positions, and we expect that the Integrated Case Management pilot will help support the wellness court because it will put into place an intensive case management process for individuals, and that kind of a process could also support participants of the wellness court. Thank you.
