Thank you, committee. Mr. Menicoche, what is the wish of committee?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I move that this committee recommends that the Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission develop and implement a more complete and consolidated quality assurance and control framework for the processing of claims;

And further, that the Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission establish a process for approving and communicating changes to its claims processing procedures and standards;

And further, that the Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission report in detail on its actions in this area to the Legislative Assembly by the end of fiscal year 2012-13.

Thank you, Mr. Bromley. To the motion.

Thank you, committee, we are concluded Committee Report 5-17(3). We will move on to Tabled Document 2-17(3), Commissioner’s Opening Address. I will open the floor for comments. Mr. Hawkins.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I move that this committee recommends that the Premier and Department of Executive review the February 2012 Status Report of the Auditor General of Canada;

And further, that the Premier and Department of Executive coordinate the government’s response;

And further, that the Premier and Department of Executive propose solutions to overcome the three government-wide barriers to effective program management identified by the Auditor General.

Thank you, Mr. Moses. To the motion. Mr. Dolynny.

Thank you, Mr. Bromley. The motion is on the floor. The motion is in order. To the motion.

Another thing that I noticed, in my quick perusal of the plan, is there’s no reference to extra funding, there’s no reference to an increase in personnel. I presume this plan is going to start in 2013-14. Will there be additional funding required in the next fiscal year for both to put the plan in place and to hire extra personnel, or is it all going to be funded from within? Thank you.

Question has been called. The motion is carried.
