Mr. Chairman, there have been instances in the past where funds have been moved from individual ridings to another person's riding with no consultation. That is why they have made attempts to do that and because of that, there have been funds taken out of, say, a capital project, and moved to another person's riding when that fund was originally allocated to a particular riding.

I would like to state again that there has to be a tightening up of the rules. We have to put some contingencies in place. I think we may not have much of a surplus to play with now. Looking at the possibility of a deficit, where we are looking at cutting $50 million, there may have to be some contingencies made in this area to ensure that we do not use supplementaries to possibly put us back in debt again because of the way that it has come forth.

Again, I would like to ask the Minister, will he consider bringing forth amendments to the Financial Administration Act in regard to protecting ourselves in regard to a deficit situation by misuse of supplementaries for capital items, so we do not go into the old mode of how we were doing things in the past? We are already starting to see cuts in the system and I, for one, feel we have to ensure we follow policies and regulations that are in place to ensure that does not happen. Will he be considering bringing in or amending the Financial Administration Act or policy to ensure that does not happen?
