Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I’m here to present Supplementary Appropriation (Infrastructure Expenditures) No. 1, 2010-2011. This document outlines a decrease of $300,000 for operations expenditures and an increase of $1.7 million for capital investment expenditures in the 2010-2011 fiscal year. The total supplementary request is $1.4 million.
This supplementary appropriation includes:
1. $1.7 million for the Department of
Transportation to complete the project description report on the portion of the Mackenzie Highway from Wrigley to the
Dempster Highway. The costs incurred in 2010-11 will be partially offset from a contribution by the Canadian Northern Economic Development Agency.
2. A decrease of $300,000 for the Department of
Transportation to advance funding approved for the Yellowknife bypass road in 2010-11 into the 2009-10 fiscal year.
I am prepared to review the details of the supplementary appropriation document. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
