Agreed. Bill 25 is now ready for third reading. With that I would like to thank the Minister and his witnesses. Sergeant-at-Arms, can you escort the witness out.

As we agreed earlier, the next bill we will be dealing with is Bill 26, Supplementary Appropriation Act, No. 2, 2002-2003. At this time I would like to ask the Minister responsible for the bill if he has any opening comments. Mr. Handley.
