The Health Council's mandate is to monitor and to report health care renewal commitment under the health accord. The 2004 accord is ending in 2014. It was a 10-year accord.
It makes sense for the government to wind down its funding to the council over the next two years. The government will provide the council with sufficient funding for the completion of the council's mandate, including its final report on progress under the accord.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
