Yes, Mr. Chair. Thank you.
I am pleased to present Supplementary Appropriation No. 1 (Infrastructure Expenditures) 2009-2010. This document outlines a reduction of $300,000 for operations expenditures and additional appropriations of $8.5 million for capital investment expenditures in the 2009-2010 fiscal year.
The items for capital investment expenditures include:
1. $2.5 million for the costs associated with the
installation of wood pellet heating systems in GNWT facilities;
2. $6 million to advance construction of the all-
weather access road from Tuktoyaktuk to Gravel Source 177, a Building Canada Plan project.
Mr. Chairman, I am prepared to review the details of the supplementary appropriation document.
