Thank you, Mr. Chairman. When an item is urgent, there is provision in the act for the Financial Management Board Secretariat to recommend a special warrant to the Commissioner. That is for emergencies that arise. There are other requirements that arise that generally we try to anticipate and seek approval through a supplementary appropriation in advance of the liability being incurred.
After having said that, it is not always possible, with the schedule of the House and the knowledge that comes to us, to get things in front of the Legislature exactly before a liability is incurred or an expenditure is made. We make our best efforts in that regard. The recognition is, that if the Assembly, in the course of the year, disapproves a supplementary that has not been authorized by a special warrant, then we would have to, as a government, look for some other way to finance that need from within the already approved estimates through reallocations. Essentially, we can incur the expenditure in advance of the authority but if that authority is denied, then we have to be ready to reallocate. Of course, that gets much tougher the closer you get to the end of the fiscal year, which is the situation we face on this supplementary. Thank you.
