Good afternoon. We will reconvene Committee of the Whole. Right now, we are reviewing Committee Report 8-15(4). I would like to ask the deputy chair of AOC to speak to the report.

Does committee agree?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. At this time I was told that the attending physician made that call that she couldn’t jump on the charter when I found out yesterday. Mr. Speaker, given the nature of a patient’s condition, I would like to ask the Minister why wasn’t the wife allowed to jump on the charter because of the patient’s condition? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Last night, I received word a constituent had a massive heart attack and was medevaced to Edmonton. Later on, I spoke with the wife and she was very upset she could not travel with her loved one on a medevac plane. Mr. Speaker, this decision was made by the medevac doctor. However, she did indicate that she would be travelling to Edmonton today to be with her loved one.

Mr. Speaker, incidents like this are always hard on family and friends. I would like to say that my thoughts are with them. In closing, Mr. Speaker, my prayers are with the family and friends, but...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, your committee has been considering Committee Report 8-15(4) and would like to report progress with two motions being adopted. Mr. Speaker, I move that the report of Committee of the Whole be concurred with. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
