Yes, thank you, Mr. Speaker. I understand that, for people who have a diagnosis and not a brand-new diagnosis, there are blood tests that are taken at the health centres and that blood is analyzed at one of the hospital labs. The results are sent back to the health centres with a flag if there is an issue that needs to be followed up. That is my understanding, that that is the way in which diabetes care is provided to communities outside of the regional hubs. I can certainly confirm, if the Member is particularly concerned about Fort Providence, that the general rule there applies to his community, as well. Thank you.
