Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, as I stated in the Budget Address, the government intends to increase the proposed 1999-2000 budget by $3.5 million. Specifically, the increases are:

- $1.5 million to establish a labour market supplement for nurses;

- $1 million for the continuation of the Working Together Program; and

- $1 million to provide funding for our Community Skills for Work Program.

Motions have been passed by this committee to add this money to the appropriate activities in the Main Estimates of the Department of Health and Social Services and the Department of Education, Culture and Employment programs.

Therefore, I move that clause 3(2) of Bill 17 be amended by striking out $723.398 million and by substituting $726.898 million.
