Effective. But also building a Clinical Support Team that can support our clinicians and nurses and ancillary team to use the tools we invest in, the tools we buy. Having that we will be able to perform a full Due Diligence and planning for the next stage which is the next Generation Health system functions. We will not do what Many Organizations have tried to do and fail. Many of you may know Many Organizations in their urgency will go ahead and sign up for an hr system, purchase it, attempt to build it and fail. Theres a very common mistake as we look at these people who failed. They did not have a blueprint of what they wanted. They had a high level requirement of what they wanted or what they thought theyd like to see, but no blueprint. Its like building a house without a blueprint. You draw your blueprint as you build your house. The probability of that succeeding or having a house that you like is probably very low compared to a full blueprint that you agree on. We need this team
Informed this is mr. Victor youngs last meeting as our clerk of our committee after now i believe a number of years of service. So, certainly we did the budget season together last year.

Thanks, victor. Thank you very much. Mr. Clerk, do we have anything else before you . Uous . That completes the age
Check, one thing i noticed there is now it seems the president is a bit mudying the water of why he cares so much about the Postal Service. Now hes going back to what he said previously about being concerned over the financial situation with the post office when he made very clear last week why he is holding up, why hes not interested in funding the Postal Service. It the has nothing to do with getting its house in order. It has everything to do with mailin voting. Well, exactly. He said so directly. The backdrop for this, kate, as you know, is longterm funding issues for the u. S. Postal service and republicans have talked for years about wanting it to be more run like a business. Of course, the way the reason the Postal Service loses money in some cases is because rural small states that get service are at the same rates that everyone else does aring subsidized because they are more expensive to serve of, but this is a case where the demands on Postal Service have dramatically increa
Transportation. I dont believe that uber cannot offer those services. Taxi cab do. I believe that these third party will create more businesses and have more frequency clients for taxi driver jz put more medallion out there and have more jobs because there are a lot of drivers out of work. I think i hope you consider this third party. I think it is a solution. Thank you. Good afternoon. My name is george. I have been driving a tax 20 years.

We will have non stop fares and know this because im
