The Premier insists the $5-million-dollar review of all government assets doesn’t duplicate the work of Moya Greene in the PERT report.
The province recently hired Rothschild and Company to put a value on everything it owns, and advise what to do with individual entities such as the NLC and Marble Mountain.
Furey says that’s far different from the work of the Premier’s Economy Recovery Team.
He says the PERT team was tasked with looking at the fiscal and economic realities of the province, including demographics, not to review assets.
Furey says he was surprised to learn that a full review of all government assets had never been done.
The government is expecting a report from Rothschild and Company by the end of March.
