Thank you, Mr. Chairman. As I stated before, originally in the five-year plan $530,000 was slated for the upgrading of lighting in the community of Arviat. The Committee on Resources was of the understanding that this is the amount of repairs required but when the committee reviewed the business plans it had been changed to $50,000. The change had been done without consultation of the Member and the justification for the downgrading of repairs, it was felt by committee, did not substantiate the argument of changing it from the amount required and the amount of repairs required. Therefore the committee made a recommendation that this should be revisited through a recommendation at this point. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
