Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister of Finance. Our Government Leader's statement on November 17 entitled "Getting Down to Business", makes it sound as though the Cabinet has made significant progress in tackling the financial deficit that has been occupying this government since the start of the 12th Legislative Assembly. I know that in the previous response to one of my colleagues, a savings of over $8 million was mentioned. For the record, can the Minister of Finance state in clear terms, in layman's terms, how much we have reduced the deficit during the period from December 9, 1991, until today?
