Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Finance. Both in the press and in this chamber, the Minister has indicated that we could be in a deficit position of anywhere between $50 and $100 million. Now that is a big jump, Mr. Speaker; for ordinary people like us, that is an awful jump -- to talk about $50 million and $100 million. So I would like to ask the Minister, since he is now well immersed in his new portfolio and has got a grasp of everything, whether he could explain to us the circumstances under which we could be in a $100 million deficit position.
