Mr. Chairman, on July 24, 1991, the Financial Management Board approved a request for the Department of Government Services to revise computer service chargeback rates, and that was because Government Services had upgraded their computers. The Department of Finance advised at that time that insufficient funds were available to meet the increased commitment required as a result of the revised computer chargeback rates. As the continued operation of a highly sophisticated financial system is mandatory in order to meet the complex accounting control and reporting requirements of the government, the request for $489,000 was granted. Government Services upped its rates, Mr. Chairman, and we pay. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
