Yes, I do, Madam Chair. I am here to present Supplementary
Estimates (Infrastructure Expenditures), No. 2, 2013-2014. This document provides for an increase of $6.610 million for operations expenditures and an increase of $93.005 million for capital infrastructure expenditures in the 2013-2014 fiscal year. The total supplementary request is $99.615 million.
Major items in this supplementary estimate include:
•
$75.5 million to carry over funding for
infrastructure projects. This funding was approved and lapsed in the 2012-13 fiscal period. Carry-overs for capital infrastructure expenditures in these supplementary estimates represent about 32 percent of the 2012-13 revised capital budget.
•
$17 million for the Department of Transportation
to provide funding for the realignment of the Ingraham Trail due to the Giant Mine Remediation Project. The net effect on government operations is nil as these costs were previously appropriated under operation expenditures.
•
$2.954 million for the Department of Health and
Social Services for the NWT Enterprise Wide Electronic Medical Records System Project. These costs will be partially offset by funding from Infoway Canada.
•
$600,000 for the Department of Transportation
for planning activities associated with the Mackenzie Valley Highway. These costs are fully offset by funding from the Canadian Northern Economic Development Agency.
I’m prepared to review the details of the supplementary estimates document. Thank you, Madam Chair.
