Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In comparison to the private sector, is our equipment we purchase as a government for these communities, the lifespan of these vehicles and heavy equipment, is it equal to those in the private sector area? Thank you.

I believe it is comparable, but I do not have the information readily available. There are instances, in the private sector, where they have been able to extend the

use of equipment for a considerable time, but on average, municipal equipment has a useful life comparable to the private sector. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Two brief questions. I am curious whether MACA, with their typographical error, has come across a creative way to do budget adjustments outside the agreed to capital planning process? Could the Minister look to find another typographical error that could give as well as take away? Thank you.
