Yes I do, Mr. Chair. I am pleased to present the 2014-2015 Capital Estimates for the Legislative Assembly. I want to thank the Board of Management of the Assembly for assisting me to develop the budget.
The Legislative Assembly is seeking funding this year of $329,000 for two projects. The first is a replacement of our telephone system, which is about 15 years old and starting to have more issues as time goes on. We can keep it going for a short term, but it does need to be replaced as soon as possible.
The second project is some signage on our roadway. Every year we have a lot of tourists that want to see our building and it is terrible finding it because we have no signage and it’s not clear on the side of the highway; there are not enough signs. The same goes on for the museum and the visitors
centre and we will be working with them to oversee the project.
I would like to thank you for the opportunity to provide my opening comments. I welcome any Members’ questions. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
