Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in the budget address given by the Finance Minister there is one million dollars identified for self-government talks. I understand now, in conversation with the Finance Minister, that this appeared in a supplementary appropriation. Can the Minister tell me where the authorization for the $1 million came from, to put the $1 million into a supplementary appropriation?
