Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I am here to present Supplementary Estimates (Infrastructure Expenditures) No. 3, 2018-2019. This document provides for an increase of $4.6 million to the capital budget.
The items in these supplementary estimates include:
- $4.8 million to commence work for three projects related to the Mackenzie Valley All-season Road project. These expenditures will be partially offset by funding from the National trade Corridors Fund.
- $400,000 for the planning study for the mid-life upgrade and retrofit to the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre. These expenditures will be partially offset by funding from the federal government.
- A decrease of $642,000 to reflect changes in the timing of the expenditures of the Fish Processing Plant project. This decrease is offset by an equivalent increase in expenditures in 2019-2020.
That concludes my opening remarks, Mr. Chair. I would be pleased to answer any questions Members may have. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
