Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would like to get into some specific questions on the P3. This is a good opportunity because in reality we have not had an opportunity to debate the P3 at all. Just simple questions in question period. I would like to have this opportunity to ask some specific questions to the Minister. The Minister talked about ground rules, guidelines and some of the areas that we have had presented to us. I do not know and I cannot remember if they have been tabled in this House so that the public at large could see them. That would be one of my concerns. If it has been tabled, that is fine, but I do have some specific questions and I will begin right now, Mr. Chairman. My first question would concern the projects themselves. When will they actually be identified and when will those projects then be made known to the House and to the public at large? Would these projects be taken out of the capital plan? For example, if an arena is to be built in hard luck bay, would that project then come out of the capital plan and the monies allocated for it, so that it could go under the Public/Private Partnerships? Is that the plan Mr. Todd has been looking at? That is the question and how the projects will be identified. I will let Mr. Todd answer those two questions and I have a couple more. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
