Mr. Chairman, under this program, I know that this fall and last year the department has been talking about developing a policy with regard to walk-in freezers with the Department of Public Works and the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs, I think. One of the reasons why the department has been reluctant to deal with walk-in freezers is because they have not got a policy developed yet, and yet I see here that we do have two cold storage facilities going into some communities. I would like to ask, how will these two capital allocations be justified?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Cold storage itself is a very defining term, I guess. It should be unheated warehouse, to house the equipment such as boats, hondas, motors, etcetera. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The freezer policy is being reviewed by FMB. We still have to make a presentation before the FMB; on the policy. Thank you.

Mr. Chairman, the last correspondence I got from the Minister of Renewable Resources was that the walk-in freezer was in front of the FMB in July of last year. They have not dealt with it yet?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Since I was entrusted with the Department of Renewable Resources, it has not been discussed by the FMB, not to my knowledge. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am told that it has been deferred a number of times before my time, and as suggested by the honourable Member, I will be looking at it seriously and I will try to get it passed by the FMB as soon as I can. Thank you.

I notice under equipment acquisition, each region has a different amount, $35,000, $36,000, $60,000, $40,000. I assume there is a list of assets that have been replaced or purchased and that your estimates reflect this.
