I am pleased to present Supplementary Appropriation No. 3 (Infrastructure Expenditures), 2009-2010. This document outlines an increase of $1.025 million for capital investment expenditures in the 2009-2010 fiscal year.
This supplementary appropriation includes:
1. $480,000 for the Legislative Assembly for the
costs associated with the purchase and installation of a biomass heating system for the Legislative Assembly building;
2. $460,000 for the Department of Education,
Culture and Employment for three community learning centres. The costs will be cost-shared on a 50 percent basis by the federal government’s Knowledge Infrastructure Program Fund.
3. $86,000 for the Department of Environment
and Natural Resources for the costs associated with the purchase of a lightning location sensor within Wood Buffalo National Park. The net effect on government operations is nil as the costs will be funded by Parks Canada.
I am prepared to review the details of the supplementary appropriation document.
