Thank you, Mr. St. Germaine. Mr. Hawkins.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So what I’m getting at here is that we’re taking the money out of health services and Public Works now is taking over the lease operations of this clinic. Is that my understanding? Thank you.

Does committee agree?

Thank you, Madam Chair. I move that the Department of Health and Social Services, in conjunction with the health and social services authorities, perform a detailed assessment of the financial and human resource requirements for delivering child and family services; and further, that the department revisit this assessment periodically and identify any necessary changes.

Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. Mr. Aumond.

Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. Again, welcome back, Mr. St. Germaine. Committee, I will now open up the floor to general comments. Mr. Hawkins.

Thank you. What I’m really trying to get to the bottom here, as Members here we can only go on the descriptors that are provided to us as we lead up to discussion in Committee of the Whole here on the floor of the House. When I see increases of electricity rates and it’s clear that it may not be a rate issue, it may be the fact that, well, we had a shortfall on not calculating our proper use and we had more electrical use than we planned for, but if that’s the case then I should see a description that says, well, we missed the mark on our use, but we’re seeing a description here that says...

Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. I will now turn to the chair of the Standing Committee on Government Operations that considered the bill for opening comments. Mr. Nadli.

Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. We would like to echo those very same words on behalf of the House, Mr. St. Germaine. It is well deserved. Thank you for your years of service. We thank you very much. Sergeant-at-Arms, if you could please escort the witness out, please. Thank you.

Ms. Bisaro, what’s the wish of committee?

Thank you, Madam Chair. I move that all future Department of Health and Social Services business plans adopt as performance measures the indicators associated with Exhibits 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the Auditor General’s report.
