Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I do not have a big problem with this motion. The only thing for the Member's information is that out of that $600,000, there is $500,000 for that lease and $100,000 is for the government to put in a new system for controlling the security system. We need $100,000 for that. So if you could reduce that to $500,000 instead of $600,000 it would be pretty good. Leave me $100,000 for the security system.

Thank you. Motion is in order. Just to remind honourable Members that an amendment to a motion is always in order, but whatever consequences arise from that is a matter for consideration. Madam Government Leader.

Mr. Speaker, it is unfortunate this was not discussed previously. I would like to make an amendment that instead of the amount $600,000 to $500,000.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just to clarify, the $500,000 was for the lease, the $100,000 is to purchase and install equipment based on the study results, a security system within the building so we replace security people and this would save us...

Let me try again if I may, Mr. Speaker. I do not know what the protocol is.

I move that this committee recommends the Department of Government Services and Public Works, Yellowknife office renovations/tenant improvements budget of $600,000, be reduced for the amounts related to space for the Department of Finance pending lease renewal tender results.

It answers the question. It does not talk about your $100,000 so let us get on with it.

That is correct. That is how the motion reads. Mr. Morin.

Just one moment. Order. The honourable Member, the Government Leader introduced an amendment. Government Leader.

Mr. Chairman, I believe the Standing Committee on Finance chairman has clarified the situation and I withdraw the amendment as it is no longer required.
