Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It is a fine hair that the Minister is splitting, so I would like to ask the Minister, when he looks at the cost to government, could he in fact get the numbers looked at so that they are accurate? How much is the government spending with this hotel tax in terms of charging itself?

It is clear that just focusing on employees leaves out a huge, as the Minister indicated, segment of the government budget. We are talking about government money and upward pressure on all the agencies and boards we fund. Thank you.
