Mr. Chairman, if this sizable amount is going to be overspent by the department, I wonder if now is the time to find what the cause of this overexpenditure was. I thought the rates had been jacked up amidst great public protest in the past year. Were the increased water rates, particularly commercial water rates, still not enough to balance the budget? Thank you.
