Thank you, Mr. Chairman. If memory serves me right, again this is another example of where SCOF had bad information when they were considering this. If memory serves me right, our books at that time said that this had been approved in the 1994-95 budget for $7.035 million. And in the 1995-96 estimates, if I recall correctly, if is $6.993 million. Whereas, in fact, Mr. Chairman, with this special warrant, the actual cost in 1994-95 is $9.264 million. My question to the Minister is what does he know that the rest of us don't about the economy in the north that we're going to see less uptake in the year 1995-96 than we did in 1994-95?
