That begs the question then, where is the money to develop the strategy and what is the status of the strategy?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The strategy has been approved, but there is no funding in place. It hasn't been addressed yet. Thank you.

The strategy was to consolidate and assess records management, procuring publications, production, voice data, and office automation. All this was tied into this strategy. I'm surprised that, a year later, we're no further ahead. That's what I read from your statement.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My understanding is that the informatics strategy that was put together by the various departments under the Financial Management Board Secretariat was approved by the board. There were some proposals for funding in the submission, but the board had some concerns about the costs, so the informatics committee is to go back, address potential projects and come back with a framework for the board to consider for funding.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In this category there are a few items for relocation. I understand it probably has to do with the fact that initial fuel tanks were probably on the outskirts of communities and they've grown around them. I would like to ask whether you can confirm if this is the situation for the ones in the budget now. And, if that's the case, are there any future perceived problems and relocations in our communities of fuel tank farms? Thank you.
