Thank you, Madam Chairperson. Through lease recovery arrangements, Madam Chairperson. As the site gets developed and we are anticipating a minimum of four major site developments there and a maximum of six, I believe, at this time. There will be a recovery program through the lease arrangements.

Just a question on the $88,000 and the last supplementary. First, we allocated $63,000 to this same area. What is the total cost of this particular project. It seems like every time we have a supplementary appropriation bill coming forward, there is money to develop this helicopter pad. It is probably pretty inexpensive proposition for this project over all. I would like to know exactly what the total cost since I see

in the previous supplementary appropriation there is $63,000 for this same project.

I am sorry Madam Chairperson, unfortunately I apologize to my colleague, I do not have the total cost in my notes on this project. I will have to get that to my colleague. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chairperson. I would like to know from the Minister of Finance why was this project not budgeted through the main estimate process, as this is a capital item and has been on the books for several years and has shown up time and time again in supplementaries. Is this the way we are going to deal with these projects or should it have been done through the main estimates?

Thank you, Madam Chairperson. The project was budgeted for in the capital expenditures and unfortunately the shortfall has been encountered due to cost over runs and architectural fees and a number of inspection costs associated with the project. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chairperson. Can the Minister give us an idea of what the cost overruns on this particular project are? The total cost from what the original estimate was to the cost overrun. If that is the reason we are coming forth for these supplementaries, I believe it is a waste of tax payers money and we should keep a closer eye on exactly on how these funds are being spent.

I am asking for information from the Minister on exactly the actual amount of this cost overrun as compared to the original estimate that was put forth.
