Mr. Chairman, the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs didn't have the numbers and couldn't meet the deadline for the cut-off for the main body of the supplementary appropriation we're dealing with. Consequently, by the time they had the numbers, the request came in late and we couldn't get it into the Standing Committee on Finance. The Minister wanted to be upfront about it and so did I, and that's why we advised the Standing Committee on Finance and this House that there was $1.2 million that hadn't been dealt with. That's why it's being handled in an unusual fashion. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
