Mr. Chairman, with regard to supps and special warrants, we do deal with them very seriously and there are criteria we want to follow. I don't think any of us would have any difficulty with taking a look at the Financial Administration Act and seeing how we can make the whole system work better. I want to say though on special warrants, if we put something in that bound the hands of the government too much then we might find ourselves at some point in the future where we just didn't have the money to spend, because of having to go through some process. You could have a school burn down, you could have a water pump building burn down in a small community and we would have to put some extraordinary effort into getting something there, but we can't do it because we have to wait two weeks to meet with the committee. That wouldn't work. We have to have the ability as a government to be able to spend money where there is an emergency where something has to be spent right away.

If we are getting too far away from those kinds of purposes, then that is where we should sit down and figure out how we work together better on that. I would like to offer that the Minister of Finance would be ready to sit down and talk about how we can do this in a way that isn't going to create frustration for everyone either. I don't think anybody wants to be surprised by big special warrants or whatever it may be. So, Mr. Chairman, we are prepared, I think I can speak on behalf of the Finance Minister, he is prepared to sit down with the committee and say okay, let's work out something here that is more workable but still retains the purpose of having special warrants to meet these kinds of situations. Thank you.
