Thank you, Madam Chair. No, the Member is not misinformed. All of the funds that you find in the budget have to be approved, typically, before things can proceed. I guess I have to be careful with that because the interim appropriation that was passed by this House did, in fact, include most of the dollars, and I believe that the capital dollars that were in that interim appropriation represent a commitment for most of the projects that you see in this budget, so I would have to say that, in a sense, the commitment was made with that interim appropriation. I know that certainly the commitments have been made to the community, the CEC and the divisional board that this project is ongoing. As I mentioned, there was an agreement by the previous government to negotiate the contract to build the school.
