Thank you. Mr. Chairman, I think that is clear. What is not clear is why it was cash-flowed over two years, but that is fine. I have no more questions in this area. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thanks, Mr. Chair. I just want to go to the grants and contributions and transfers page, which is 207. There was a reduction in the socioeconomic agreement funding for Canadian Zinc and Diavik. There is now zero there for 2017-18. Can the Minister or staff explain what is going on? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. There was no reduction as such. We just moved them to other expenses. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thanks, Mr. Chair. I am not sure that it is buried in there. This seems to be a much more transparent way of presenting the information; why has it been moved to contracts? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Typically, the work that is done in this area is through contract services or travel. It is typically not through a contribution program, so therefore we reflected it more accurately, the way the funds are being spent for 2017-18. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thanks, Mr. Chair. Are the companies actually putting any money into these agreements, or is it just us expending money on the agreements? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Our expenditures are covered for us to meet with communities and have our conversation with them. I am sure that the mines, when they are there participating, they are expending their own expenses. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thanks, Mr. Chair. Why are we contracting people to go meet with the communities? Is that not something that we would do on our own with our existing staff? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I would have to get the details of the numbers, but that is probably for boardroom rentals and things of that nature. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
