Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. So we, as the Member noted, had committed to doing consultation by the end of the fiscal year. We are planning to hold focus groups in I believe it is eight communities. The delay we have had has been simply working community governments to nail down appropriate dates because this is a busy time of year and there is a lot going on in communities.
We will advertise through community radio, through radio, through newspapers, through social media, and we will be sending notices to MLAs. In each of those communities, we will hold as many focus groups as there is public demand for, so no one will be turned away who is interested in participating. There will also be an online survey.
As the Minister noted, our timeline is tight because we want this wrapped up by mid-March so that we can have a report very early in the new fiscal year out of that on a design of a territorial midwifery program. Then we will look at our ability to implement that within existing resources or go forward to the business planning process. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
