Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Under Public Works and Services, accommodation services, perhaps the appropriate Minister could explain what that is.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The accommodation services, Mr. Chairman, are things like leases we have on offices, houses, janitorial and security, et cetera. Mr. Chairman, when I went before the committee, I did indicate that these were one-year commitments based upon the Financial Administration Act and that is why this number is as large as it is. Thank you.

Could the Minister confirm if he said this was the full commitment for the year?

That is correct, Mr. Chairman. Based upon the legal commitment we have with respect to leases across the Territories, when we explained the interim appropriation, we explained that while this is only a three month interim appropriation, we have to show the commitment for the 12-month period where we have contractual financial arrangements. Mr. Ootes is correct.

With regard to expenditures, how long are the leases? Are they 10-year leases? You are saying it is on a yearly basis.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. There is a variety of leases and a degree of where they are at. In some cases, we have 10-year leases and five-year leases. Each lease is in a different phase in terms of its expenditure base, et cetera. There are a variety of leases, Mr. Chairman. Thank you.

Could we have a listing of all these leases that the government presently holds and who these companies are, so we can get a breakdown? There is a lot of competition out there and we may have to look at the alternative of tendering some of these leases when they are up and the time frames for when these leases are up.
