Mr. Chairman, the intent or the purpose of the budget before us is to look at funding for next year's activities. The uniqueness of this request is that they're asking for money that has already been expended with no approval from the Assembly. The normal process is either through special warrant or through supplementary appropriation. The MLA, who is a Minister of the government, should at least have been aware of the process, but more so the department officials should be aware of the process. Now you're asking us to rubber stamp a funding request that has already been expended. Where is your consideration for Members in this House who take the time to look at these budget requests? Thank you.
