Statements in Debates
I’d like to call Committee of the Whole Back to order. We are reviewing the Department of Transportation. We are on page 11-17. Before we begin, does the Minister have witnesses he’d like to bring into the Chamber?
Moving along to page 11-38, activity summary, road licensing and safety, active positions. Agreed?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I just want to follow up on some questions from some of my colleagues on the different power reviews that are going on.

I would like to ask the Premier, has Cabinet made a decision to sell the Power Corporation to ATCO? Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Minister McLeod.
Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Next on my list, Mr. Krutko.
