Premier defends bill to speed up licensing process for health-care workers
“. . .
NDP Leader Claudia Chender said the premier's dismissal of concerns by regulators is worrisome. The province needs more health-care workers as soon as possible, but it cannot happen at the expense of public safety, she told reporters.
Chender said addressing potential problems with the bill should not be left to regulations.
"It is in the legislation that cabinet now gets to decide how health-care professionals are regulated and I think that should really concern people."
