Mr. Chairman, I mentioned to the Standing Committee on Finance this morning that there is $1.2 million that really should have been in this supp. It did not make it through the system and has not even gone to the Financial Management Board yet. The Standing Committee on Finance recommended this morning that we try to include it in this supplementary appropriation but until the Financial Management Board meets tomorrow morning, I won't have approval from them. Because we're dealing with the supp today, I can't meet the time line. So, I'll advise the House that, although it should have been a supp, it will probably end up as an overexpenditure by the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs in their water and sewer program of some $1.2 million. Just for the record, it's not something that's being buried, it's just that it got caught in a timing process. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
