He said over the last few years, there have been some communities that have needed extra health care workers, so the NDP will approve that, but other communities that require a decrease in service, they won't lay off so they have people just sitting around not being utilized. They won't even offer transfers many times. He said they have wasted so much just by wanting to make sure they didn't lay off any health care workers.
