Motion 6-16(3): Increases To Income Thresholds Carried
Consideration in Committee of the Whole of Bills and Other Matters

February 18th, 2009

Michael McLeod Deh Cho

Mr. Chairman, this budget was put together prior to the federal money being announced. We are not in a position to revise it as we have not formally entered an agreement. We are still sorting out the detail. We expect to have something in place by March 2nd , and per our

financial FMB rules, we have to just present what we have dollars planned to spend. There will be a change when we bring forward the new dollars that will be spread over two years. That will be focussed on a little more than just homeownership.

Mr. Chairman, this was the reality of the day with the dollars that we had in our budget for this coming year. This will be increased, the investment, by $25 million.
