Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Welcome back to the committee.

I'd like to go back to the health transfer and specifically speak about dental care. Certainly you well know that dental and oral care are health care. Certainly there are very strong evidence-based models that demonstrate the health outcomes that follow.

Will you be conducting a cost analysis on the funds that are being spent on dental care and their relationship with the outcomes in health care?
