One second, Mr. Chair. I am just trying to find the item that the Member is referring to. Mr. Chair, I am suspecting that the managers, in looking at this, recognize that they didn't need the full 320 for utilities but needed the money elsewhere. So, when they came forward with their projections, this more reflects the reality of that. But I can get some breakdown and some detail for the Members and provide that. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Maybe the Minister can just provide some detail on the extra 600,000 in contract services from '05-06. Thank you.

Mr. Chairman, I understand the lion's share of this is related to the new Tourism Strategy.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. So is any of that extra money actually going into any of the tourism associations in the NWT, Mr. Chairman? Thank you.

In grants and contributions earlier on the page there's $120,000 in forced growth that we are sending to the NWTT to recognize their increased costs. But as Members know, part of the investment in $1 million that we're making, not related to their forced-growth needs, is for additional marketing money and I think that's $400,000.

At least somebody over there can add.

Between marketing and contract services, is this contracting out marketing consultants for the NWT tourism associations or how does that work? Thanks.

Mr. Chairman, related to the Tourism Strategy, an example of a contract service would be surveys that would be done related to tourism, fishing operators, something like that. If we were doing a survey, it would come out of contract services. So the marketing money wouldn't be reflected there. That would be grants and contributions money.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I was looking at all these parks here and we have $2.7 million going into some repairs and upgrades, yet I see nothing here from the Beaufort-Delta or along the Dempster Highway. Is there a particular reason that they were left out of the loop? Thank you.

Mr. Chairman, if you'll just give me a second. I'm just looking at this detail here.
Mr. Chairman, we do two things, but much of our minor maintenance is done through O and M funding. So for the four parks that we have in the Inuvik region, there is money being spent there in O and M, but nothing in the capital budget for larger items. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
