Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Before we start to discuss the budget of this ministry, I have an important request for the Minister. When the Standing Committee on Finance discusses the main estimates with the Members of Cabinet, we have access to budget detail at the task level; however, we were unable to discuss the budget of this ministry in that detail with the Minister in January.

That same level of budget detail is not available to Members here in committee of the whole; the documents available here include detail only down to the activity level. As well, this ministry's budget consists of only one activity. Therefore, I think the Members present need to be able to see the ministry's budget in more detail in order that we can properly review it here in the House. Could the Minister please provide the Members with the details of this ministry's budget down to the task level, as included in the documents provided to the Standing Committee on Finance? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
