Pursuant to Standing Order 67.1, there will now be a 30-minute question period.
In the normal course, these 30-minute question periods are given preference to opposition members posing questions to the ministry. I would ask all members wishing to participate in this 30-minute question period to please rise. That will give some indication as to how we will accord the time. I would also ask hon. members as well as the minister responding to keep their interventions to approximately one minute, and that should allow members interested to participate.
The hon. member for Kamloops—Thompson—Cariboo.
