Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, what I've been saying for a number of responses now, the community has been involved in this process. Initially we tried to accommodate the request of the community to stick to a renovation rather than going to a new facility. But all our work, the accountant looked at the value of dollars spent and the lifespan of the facility; going new is the best method to use. Yes, like I said, the department has now made the decision that they'll go to a new facility. As a government, if we say it will be a leased facility, we can go out there for space and have a private developer come up with that. But the fact is, the department still has to have this program established in the business plan. It still has to go through that stage, and we need to start someplace. That's why we're at this situation and, yes, admittedly it's not the situation we'd like to be in where we're going to spend as much money as this in a short period of time and then go to a new facility. Unfortunately, in all our talks, all the discussions, all the work that has been done back and forth, we've burnt the timeline up. So that's why we're here today; the department has requested this; FMB reviewed it and has
agreed to put it in here, and that's why it's in as a supplementary appropriation, is waiting for the authority of this House to either say yea or nay to it. Thank you.
