Yes, Mr. Chair. This is a phase 2 expenditure reduction of $925,000. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Minister. Mr. Thompson.

Thank you, Mr. Chair, and I thank the Minister for that. For economic diversification, he talked about how there was about $225,000 coming from business support, trade, and economic analysis and other program costs. Could he spend a little further on where the other difference of $325,000 is coming from? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Minister Schumann.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. It's the new Growing Forward equity that we're going to put forward for $188,000 and $145,000 for South Slave, the new fishery person that we're going to be moving there. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Minister Schumann. Mr. Thompson.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. On page 216, it says “Growing Forward.” It says “$488,000.” Could the Minister just maybe elaborate a little further on what he talked about with the Economic Diversification in there, the amount? I'm just trying to get that clarified. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Minister Schumann.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. This is our equity portion for Growing Forward 2, which will be the new CAP program under the Department of Federal Government. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Minister Schumann. Mr. Thompson.

Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you for the clarification. Maybe I'll just go on to page 216 in this area here and look at the Growing Forward 2 section. It's $488,000 in this area. Where is the additional cost coming from in this area? Because right now my numbers don't match up, so maybe the Minister could just clarify that for me and it would help me. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Minister Schumann.

Could I get the Member to rephrase the question? I don't totally understand what he's asking.

Thank you, Minister Schumann. Mr. Thompson.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. In Growing Forward, there's $488,000 on page 216. When we talk about the Economic Diversification, a portion of that money was earmarked for that. Where is the difference in that money? Is it a federal program that this money is coming from, or is this an internal transfer? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Minister Schumann.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. That will be in the schedule for work on behalf of others. That will be the federal portion of the new CAP program. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Minister Schumann. Mr. Thompson.

No, I'll ask that question in 231. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Mr. Simpson.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I have a series of questions. Commercial Fisheries, this is the section to discuss that. I won't go too much into the fish processing plant and that type of stuff. I know there are a lot of activities going on related to the Commercial Fisheries Revitalization Strategy, but there doesn't seem to be any sort of organization to this outside of the fishery strategy. Is there an action plan that the Minister can share with the committee so that we can see what is exactly happening with this strategy and how it's being implemented?

Thank you, Mr. Simpson. Minister Schumann.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. We presently have a project task team who is working on this. At some point, we want to come in front of committee to present. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Minister Schumann. Mr. Simpson.
