Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am here to present Supplementary Estimates (Operations Expenditures), No. 3, 2010-2011. This document outlines a net increase of $8.437 million in operations expenditures for the 2010-2011 fiscal year.
The major items in the supplementary estimates include:
1. $4.370 million for the Department of Health
and Social Services to fund the cost of insured services to non-NWT residents, which will be fully offset by recoveries from other jurisdictions for services for their residents.
2. $1.766 million for the Department of Education,
Culture and Employment to fund the projected shortfall in the Income Assistance Program for the 2010-2011 fiscal year.
3. $1.170 million for the NWT Housing
Corporation to fund increases in the costs for power in public housing.
The supplementary estimates also include a negative supplementary appropriation totalling $1.45 million to reflect changes to the previously approved funding for projects in support of the GNWT’s Energy Priorities Investment Plan.
I am prepared to review the details of the supplementary appropriation document.

I am also here to present Supplementary Estimates (Infrastructure Expenditures), No. 5, 2010-2011. This document outlines a net increase of $800,000 for capital investment expenditures in the 2010-2011 fiscal year.
There are two items in the supplementary estimates:
1. A negative supplementary appropriation of
$150,000 which represents the transfer of capital investment expenditures funding to operations expenditures funding for the maintenance costs associated with the NWT Laboratory Information System.
2. $950,000 for the reconstruction of a section of
the Inuvik Airport taxiway. The net impact on government operations is nil as the reconstruction of the taxiway will be funded by the Department of National Defence.
I am also prepared to review the details of this supplementary appropriation document as well.
