Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, as I had stated, again, I would be prepared to sit down with committee and go through those findings. Upon having a second look at it, decide where we can go with that if there is further release of that information. I would have to have a better look at that before I can make that commitment. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, there was not a full report, as the Member stated, about all of the factors and it doesn’t go into the fact that the Member has raised about the Minister said no, there was no breech. There was a specific case looked at, but as a department we would look at doing a full review of the conversion back to 8.9 and implementation. Once it’s complete we would look at doing that. The specific issue itself, the Minister hasn’t been given a copy of the specific incident. That hasn’t been supplied to myself as Minister. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the department has some flexibility. In fact, what we have found in a number of cases where we work on case management with either Education, Culture and Employment or the Housing Corporation is to look at the case and work together on trying to find solutions. It is not our practice to deal case by case in this scenario. But as the Member is aware, all departments have been very involved in this and looking forward to try to find some solutions that fit. That doesn’t mean, as was stated earlier, that we can go beyond what our programs are, but we have...

I am sorry, Mr. Chair; I missed that last question.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I would have to go back to see if I had actually mentioned the Audit Bureau as being the one, but what we have done, as Mr. Cleveland has stated, is the initial look at implementation done in 2000. But while the systems were still within FMBS before we created or just shortly after creating the Department of Human Resources, there was another activity looked at. We hired an outside group to review the work that was being done and how we were using the PeopleSoft system and how we continue to use our processes. That was done by the Hackett Group. It was...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, this process has been very involved. Out of the total number of staff working at that facility, 345 staff took the time to go into the initial survey portion. That is a significant number. Approximately 84 percent of our staff did take part in that initial survey. I think, number one, that shows a very good process where they became involved. The second set of processes will be direct involvement through unit staff meetings building up to the overall meeting with both groups. Again, as I stated, the Bureau of Statistics as well as our consultant...

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, again, just for the record, the correspondence I saw come across my desk was on the issue of our processes, policies and if there was a breach on information being leaked, and I am prepared to sit down with Members to go over that. I believe you will see that information, though there was a problem with our system at that point, it does not go to a breach. I would be prepared to sit down with Members and go over that. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I will defer this to Minister Bell.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in our previous sitting, I committed to bring back the results of those reports to the Members as well as present the reports back to employees. The first stage of that, employees have received their package now and there will be a process working through the Stanton territorial health facility and the employees there of getting back some feedback on that. The second part of that was a more in-depth survey that was done by an outside source, and we're hoping to have that done by near the end of September. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I would have to go back and look at the actual date of the correspondence that I received. I do not believe it was shared with the Minister at that point. It came to my desk because it was an issue looked at through FMBS. I would have to look at the actual correspondence when I received it in my office, but I haven’t forwarded it to anyone else. I thought initially that it may have gone to committee, but I believe that is not accurate. If it is, it is still within my domain and department or within my office as Minister responsible for FMBS. Thank you...
