    The $844,000 is primarily with a few contractors under our administration -- or information services, mail chargebacks, Xerox under finance, and some administrative contracts such as French language services, College of Physicians and Surgeons, and the Alberta // Renal. Thank you.

    Thank you. Thank you, Madam Chair. And thank you, Minister. My next question will be is that in regards to contract services for $844,000, can you maybe just elaborate a little bit on that, on the breakdown of that because I don't see it in here. Thank you.

    Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, those are capital projects which are in the capital budget that this year will be presented at the end of August. And so this budget doesn't contain capital projects. It contains the operations and maintenance of both the old hospital and the new hospital. So those capital costs are not in here.

    Thank you, Madam Chair. And thank you, Minister, for your answer. I'm just thinking about the deficit again, but I'm just thinking the budget overall is -- you know, we got a pretty big budget here of $610 million plus. I'm just thinking about the three P initiatives in terms of commitments. Going forward, I know that we're building that new hospital and then the renovation of the old hospital, etcetera. I just want to know, I guess overall, is that going to -- the binding of this budget the government's -- those projects long term, what are the -- I don't know if you could speak to it or not but I just want to know what the long-term payback is on that -- on those three projects. Thank you.

    Thank you. The chargebacks on that page relate to the money that we pay to the TSC for the support they give us for our various electronic and health information systems.

    Thank you, Madam Chair. Maybe if -- I just had another question. Can the Minister explain to me about the -- on page 190, in terms of chargebacks. Can you just maybe just touch a little bit on that and so I understand it. Thank you.
