Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the department takes the Member's comments. They are noted. We will try and respond to the Member's concerns as to the ability to maintain Highway No. 3 in a safe condition. We believe it is safe. That is what the highway report says. The highways are in a safe driving condition.
Mr. Chairman, I would like to say here that we are considering other options for funding. At some point in time, we are hoping that some of these options will come forward and pay off. At this point in time, we cannot put forward any one as a suggestion, because there are none of them that are firmed up in such a way we could put it forward as a plan or strategy.
We do meet with people. We do consider proposals put forward to us. This is not just on a one-time basis. This is on an ongoing basis. Mr. Chairman, I hope the Members will continue to support the department in obtaining funds for our capital needs. Thank you.
