Thank you, Mr. Vanthuyne. Any further questions, committee? Seeing none, I will call the page. Infrastructure, programs and services, operations expenditure summary, $31,885,000. Does committee agree?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I am glad the Minister mentioned that because that is one thing we are trying to do, is combine the small employment fund with the community access fund, which would have gone a lot further, I believe. Right now, the way this fund is being managed, I know it's outside his department, so I will not go there right now. I think it would have gone a lot further if we did combine those two pots of money for the community access. It would have brought the fund up to way more than double what it is now. I think that is something for the transition committee to possibly suggest...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am glad the department is looking at it, as the Minister stated, that, if emergency response is not working, then they will look at a full-time nurse. I look forward to that, and I will be sure to keep on top of this, as well. I thank the Minister for that commitment. Will the Minister live up to that commitment?
