Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as I indicated in my Member's statement, in September 2004, Public Works and Services tendered out a project to
upgrade the water plant in Sachs Harbour. Over the 2004-2006 season, there were a number of flaws encountered with the water treatment plant, but the major problem they encountered, Mr. Speaker, is the water intake line. The department should have at least addressed the problem over the summer of 2005. Now here we are in 2006 and they are still having the same problem that they encountered way back in 2004-2005 with the water line continuing to freeze in Sachs Harbour. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Public Works and Services. Since the start of the upgrade for the water plant in 2004 in Sachs Harbour, can the Minister say how much money was actually spent by the department to date for the project and subsequent problems that were encountered in 2006 and 2004? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
