No. So it's not really because we're expecting to spend less, it's just moving of money. I thought it was too good to be true, so I wanted to confirm that. Thank you.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. I was just wondering if we're on 5-17. I don't recall
approving 5-16, but anyways, just with respect to contract services, the increase of $2 million. Could I get an explanation from the Minister?

Thank you. Thank you, Madam Chair. For increased contract services, it would be, again, these would be for office space allocations. So the biggest one again is dealing with the human resources amalgamation, lease costs for office space, $1.2 million. Lease costs for the BDIC transfer from ITI incremental, $68,000. Management of drinking water initiative is 90. Does the Member want the rest of the numbers there? They're all about $30,000. The next big one, again forced growth for office accommodation lease costs, $726,000. Operations and maintenance for asset inventories, $238,000. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Yes, I see we got increased office space, yet we're reducing utilities. Can the Minister explain how that works?

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, in the reduction of utilities is because we've transferred it from Public Works and Services over to Municipal and Community Affairs and they distribute it from there. So it's not an actual reduction. It's been transferred out from the department and is offset with the increase in Municipal and Community Affairs. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. I'd like to move that this committee recommends that the government design its facilities to be energy efficient and also use their equipment in an energy efficient manner, and further that the government develop a program to recognize and reward employees for suggesting ways that we might save energy. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Robert C. McLeod Inuvik Twin Lakes
Thank you, Madam Chair. There's a facility planner and a project officer for the school projects up in Inuvik. I don't see it reflected here in the active positions for Beaufort-Delta, yet I see an increase of two in Yellowknife headquarters. I hope these two positions aren't going to Yellowknife. Thank you, Madam Chair.
