Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in the BIP program, we would consider any contractor eligible if part of that project, even if only part of it was within a local jurisdiction, which they were registered. We would not take that project and break it into pieces under the current BIP project and say they are considered local for this two kilometres but the other 20 kilometres, no one has it. We have considered that to be one project. Thank you.
