Thank you, Madam Chair. Just referring to the Speaker’s notes here, I see we are taking advantage of some efficiencies. I’m happy to see our General Election costs are anticipated to be only slightly larger than four years ago.
The 11.5 percent increase is obviously quite a bit compared to the departments, but I know there could be some reasons for that. I see about $860,000 of that is for the office of the Chief Electoral Officer for the election, so that’s 40 percent of that. I’m just wondering if there are any comments on what the rest of that is.
One other thing. I appreciated the Speaker’s comments on the projects to make our building more accessible for people with disabilities and the consultation with the Disabilities Council and Institute for the Blind. How are we doing on that front? Are we there? Is there more work to be done? I’d just like to keep my finger on that pulse, and I’ll leave it at that. Thank you.
