The Minister is in a unique situation here I guess, because he is going to be going through some major changes inside his department, and he will have, I believe, ample opportunity to take a good, hard look at some of the areas we're going to recommend to him through this process that may in fact be a duplication of effort, a duplication of delivery of service.
I just had to comment, if I could, Mr. Chairman, on some of the comments by my colleague from Great Slave. It's not my intention and I don't believe it's the intention of anybody on this side of the House to downplay the role that the Arctic Energy Alliance plays in the grand scheme of things. I guess what we're trying to get at is do we have the same people inside the department doing the same thing, I think is what we're trying to get at, Mr. Chairman. We're trying to save resources; we're not trying to waste them in the same kind of areas.
The question I have for the Minister is we went through a briefing this morning on a supplementary appropriation, and I know he talked about having set aside I think it was $1.1 million in upfront capital cost for the rollout of the waste recovery program. In the supp there's $65,000 in additional dollars. Why does that appear in a supplementary appropriation? Shouldn't it appear in their budget, Mr. Chairman? Thank you.
