Mr. Speaker, each Minister is responsible for the department. They each have to be able to justify and defend and rationalize any projects that come forward. If a Minister has a disagreement on a particular project with their deputy, then they would have to sort that out between them. I assume that the Minister is the person in charge, the person who has to account for that department, and will make the final decision.
