The Conservative opposition is questioning the Graham government’s motives in dealing with negotiations for doctors’ fees.
Rothesay M-L-A Margaret Ann Blaney says she understands a tentative agreement has been in place but the government has been dragging its feet — and — may be on the verge of scrapping it altogether.
Health Minister Mike Murphy says no deal is in place and negotiations are continuing — meantime — the Conservatives are also hammering the Graham Liberals over pending cuts to various education programs — both Districts 6 and 8 say programs will be slashed thanks to a cut in their 2009 – 2010 budgets.
