Debates of , 16th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 44)

Mr. Chairman, I’d have to ask the Member just to elaborate a bit more; I’m not clear. When he talks about approval processes, is he talking about with the Legislature? I’m not sure.

The answer is the same as it was five minutes ago: I’ll get that information for the Member. I would point out, though, that the Semmler Building lease is going to be used by the Beaufort-Delta Education Council to allow for barrier free access services.
