Ms. Meade.
Under the new regulation it stipulates that you have to have, to operate under a new model that you’re using, you have to have 18 beds and it has to be adjacent to a Level B or C health centre. Will the health centre be in the new facility?
I call Committee of the Whole to order. We have several items: tabled documents 4, 30, 38, 62, 66, 75 and Bills 4, 8 and 9. What is the wish of the committee? Mr. Beaulieu.
The Minister of Health, Ms. Lee.
Next I have Mr. Menicoche.
Under the Tlicho Health Authority, under the Tlicho Government, this facility, will it be a part of an asset of the Tlicho Government through the self-government arrangement with them with respect to developing assets in the Tlicho region?
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. One thing the Minister does have control over is the time schedule of the ferry operations. I’d like him to seriously consider moving the ferry operations to 8:00 a.m. so that people will have the opportunity to do their work during the day, travel to Inuvik, make their appointment, get back home or even make their appointments to fly into southern Canada. You do have the power, you do have the means; all I ask is that you start the ferry operations in the Inuvik region at 8:00 a.m. starting next season.
The Minister of Health.
Mr. Abernethy.
Okay. I’ll go back.
