Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. I will circulate the motion. The motion is in order. To the motion. Ms. Bisaro.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I kind of shot the wad previously before I introduced the motion. I would just like to state, in terms of where the money can come from, I know the department is consistently strapped for money and I know the Minister said, as well, that we don’t know what the federal money is going to be eligible for, but I suspect we can make oral health care fit into something that the federal government is going to require us to use for this $7 million a year.
I really feel this is a minimal amount of money and I feel it’s basic to the health of our children. It’s a very basic prevention tool we can use. I would urge everybody to really think about what this is going to do for us, the amount of money that it is and the fact that we do have “$7 million of new money” coming to us this year some time. Thank you.
Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. To the motion. Mr. Bromley.
Thank you. Very briefly…
---Technical difficulties
Thank you, committee. Welcome back. Sorry for the technical delay. Noting the clock, I know we have a motion on the floor, but we are going to defer it by noting the clock. We will get back to it. I will rise and report progress.
I call the House back to order. Before I call for the report of Committee of the Whole, I am informed you would like some more time to consider the matters before you in Committee of the Whole.
By the authority given to me by Motion 10-17(5), I hereby place you back into Committee of the Whole to consider the business before the House until such time as you are ready to report, with Mr. Dolynny in the chair.
