Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would argue with the Minister by saying that the direction starts here and although the rattling of the swords should not be happening in the department of opposition, they should be following the direction of the Finance Minister. So when he says that it would be difficult, the dye needs to be cast at the FMB table, not within the department telling the Finance Minister where their cap is. I’m convinced that the cart is leading the horse.

What, really, at the end of the day can the Minister speak to this budget where we’ve had a significant notice in the reduction of costs to government? I’ve highlighted at least one. We don’t have to go through that. What is a noticeable reduction of cost of government that is being proposed or has been demonstrated in the last couple of years?
