Thank you, Mr. Chair. I do want to comment briefly on these items. The $105.7 million carry-over for infrastructure, representing projects that were not done or completed, at 35 percent of our total expenditure for the last year is quite a large carry-over.

During the 16th Assembly we did have a special

deputy ministers committee on infrastructure that did a lot of thinking and implementing of a new approach to deal with our challenges, which are many in the sort of whimsical northern environment that people have to deal with, problems of access and so on, and that included moving to Class C estimates so that we were more accurate on our estimating costs of infrastructure, and probably the biggest was that we moved our capital budget debate to the fall so that we would have a full period of time within which to plan and arrange for spring transportation of materials. However, I think it’s also well known that we went through an amazing almost a billion dollars’ worth of infrastructure in the 16th Assembly, due partly to the

federal contribution of funds for stimulation and the Building Canada Fund. I think we have a pretty good record of delivering infrastructure at an exceptional rate during those years. Nevertheless,

this is a well-recognized challenge. We have put actions in place and now as we drop back to a more modest capital budget this year, I will be looking to see that percentage of carry-over drop significantly. If not, it is back to the drawing board.

I am always supporting investments that are saving us money as these energy initiatives do for the Deh Gah School in Fort Providence, and the electrical weather system in Fort Smith, Northern Lights Special Care Facility. Those are sound investments. Again, $10 million for the bridge, we have spoken clearly on that. This is unacceptable, but here we are between a rock and a hard place. Hopefully, this does indeed cap this off and get the bridge in place this fall and we won’t be hearing further appropriations there.

With respect to the $2.5 million sort of repeat expenditure for the Inuvik-Tuk highway, what did we learn from our last-minute investment of a similar amount during 2011-12? How does this amount use that information? Again, I look forward for more information on that. We want to be careful with our infrastructure dollars, obviously, given the tremendous demand and the debts that we have in putting infrastructure in place. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
