Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters  Thank you, Madam Chair. No. That's good to hear, that they meet on a regular basis.

Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters  Marsi cho, Madam Chair. That kind of does answer a little bit about this, but I just want to make sure that my colleagues are aware that there are still some gaps there within it.

Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters  Marsi cho, Madam Chair. I was just listening to some of the comments from my colleagues.

Question 610-19(2): Gaps in Emergency Services  Marsi cho, Mr. Speaker. Just in light of my Member's statement on Friday about service gaps for emergency services, the Minister of Health and Social Services gave me a little bit of direction of where to go with this.

Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters  Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you for that response. I'll just finish up with a short comment.

Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters  Thank you, Mr. Chair. Where I'm going with this is: one of the biggest things, in terms of medical treatment and medical services for our small communities, and I guess for all our communities in the territory, is that, if you want to effectively treat somebody or offer them the

Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters  There's a line here, medical professional development. I'm not sure exactly what that is. Can the Minister just describe what those funds are for for professional development? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters  Thank you, Mr. Chair. That's really good to hear.
