Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, there is no requirement that the department advise the Member simply because the money is going from one riding to another. There are other conditions to this that have to come into play under the FAA.
In particular, the FAA requires notice to the Member and to the appropriate standing committees if the money is being moved from one budgeted project to another budgeted project. In this particular case, the budgeted project, which is the Dempster Highway, is budgeted for $5 million.
Within that budgeted project, there are 13 subprojects, which include the two projects the Member is talking about. There is no requirement to inform the Member of this because it is not a budgeted project. Therefore, we are not changing anything that is not in the budget.
