(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would like to ask a question. I think it was last year, 1996 in November, I asked the Minister at that time about Hall Beach wanting a wildlife officer and he mentioned that he would get back to me once he finds out. I just wanted to know if the Minister has had time to consult with his department in regards to getting a wildlife officer in Hall Beach or not. Thank you. (Translation ends)

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I just want to clear up a couple of points before I ask some questions. Yesterday I said in the unedited Hansard on page 1534, I guess there was a media report today that I was trying to make accusations that money was going west and not going east. I should reiterate my point in the unedited Hansard because that is not what I said. I said in the unedited Hansard "I am not trying to make accusations that money is going west and not going east, that is not what I said." That is my quote. Now after saying that, I would like to point out Mr. Kakfwi, in the unedited Hansard said there was a million dollars in the capital budget for Sylvia Grinnell Park in Iqaluit. But when I look at the detail of the main estimates for capital for that park, I only see $50,000 and there is nothing in future years anticipated. Can the Minister tell me where this money, this budget, this million dollars is coming from and why it is not in the detail of capital or why it is not in the mains? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In the detail across from Grinnell Park, Iqaluit for prior costs instead of a blank, it should show about $332,000 and the future years anticipated should read $939,000.

Mr. Speaker, am I to understand that now that indeed this money is for my park and is not obvious in the detail of capital because it is a typographical mistake? Is that correct?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, can the Minister than tell me what is budgeted for next year for this project? Again, I do not have the line in my book. Future years is not here. Could the Minister tell me what they are budgeting for 1998 and 1999?

For the record, Mr. Chairman, can the Minister repeat that to around $200,000? Does he have the figure there to tell me if it is 210, 220, 250?
