Thank you, Mr. Speaker. With the tendering process, especially this summer season seemed to be a real hectic one where a lot of tenders were not concluded in regard to negotiated whatnot until August. A lot of the complaints were that apparently the estimated price that was put forth through the budgetary process was a lot lower than expected for a lot of contracts have come in way over the estimated cost. Is there a problem with the process we have used to estimate these projects or is it just because of the economic circumstances we find ourselves in the north where it seems like it is happening all over, especially where we have construction of schools and other public facilities, that they are way over budget? What is the reason for that?
