Total acquisition of equipment, $280,000. Agreed? Mr. Gargan.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, just to get clarification, the finance person responded that you had a lump sum of about $110,000, of which $15,000 was spent on the Chan Lake tower. Where was the other money spent, then? I see $15,000 for Fort Providence for last year, but there was no other expenditure on towers, and it has not been reflected here either, whether on various or what mobile equipment. What was the balance spent on?

Thank you. Mr. Minister.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I will hand the microphone over to my director of finance.

I believe the prior year costs refer to costs prior to 1991-92. They do not reflect current year costs. That is where it would show up. The prior year cost refers to expenditures that were incurred prior to this current fiscal year.
