Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, this still causes me a lot of concern that we do not have a firm policy that clearly directs the money that's left over. My vote goes towards approving the budget and the number of positions and the money that's allocated to those positions. Would the Minister consider implementing a standard of requirements for all departments to follow in their budgeting and accounting for money saved through vacancies where we can avoid the potential stigma of the appearance of unaccountable slush money? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
