Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have a general question in regard to all of the infrastructure that’s proposed, but relating, actually, to carryover. In regard to infrastructure from ’07–08 I’d like to know whether or not all the housing projects from last year have been completed.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We’re bringing forward a paper to lay out the carryovers for the year. It will be worth about $5 million in carryovers.

My other question would be then: $5 million would be approximately how many units?

About 20 units. Roughly, a ballpark figure, about one-quarter of a million dollars each, if my math is correct.

Yes, thank you, and thank you, colleagues. I had just a quick question.

I

think the Minister mentioned that there was

$20 million in carryovers. Is that what’s showing up in the $38.390 million? Because if you look at the other numbers, they’re fairly consistent, and then you’ve got a jump to $38 million. So is that including the $28 million in carryovers?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The number for carryovers is about $5 million. What the 2009–2010 reflects is a loss of the $17 million, the federal share of the Affordable Housing Initiative.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I think I understand why committee is deferring this. As I recall, there were a couple of motions to add things back in, but there was no outstanding information that I’m aware of. So I guess I’m asking Members — although I know it’s not a question process — why would we defer at this point, when we could move on to the next department and just move on?

I guess I’m concerned with the fact that, though we do have to look at the budget process, what’s outstanding…. For committee to move to the next department and just proceed.

I believe a similar motion was passed a year ago under the same department, so I don’t see why there are problems with a motion being deferred. Thank you.
