Saskatchewan school division boundaries may expand in the coming years.

Consultations about amalgamation are set to start this fall; meanwhile, the Ministry of Education will pay close attention to a review of options to reduce the number of regional health authorities, which was announced last week.

On Wednesday, Education Minister Don Morgan said ministry staff are working to determine what the consultation process for education will look like, but he would like it to occur alongside consultations on health region boundaries.

“We’ll want to work somewhat in tandem with that so we can get an assessment whether we should have coterminous boundaries or how much the boundaries might overlap in the health and the social service district, so that we’re able to share resources as much as we can,” he said.

Last week, the province announced the appointment of a three-person panel to “lead the work of reviewing and advising on options for reducing the number of Regional Health Authorities in Saskatchewan.”
