Thank you, Mr. Chair. The issue of carry-overs is always something we are looking at. This year at $121.8 million is actually the lowest amount during the 18th Assembly. We work with departments to make sure that they have got all of the pieces in place before they put forward infrastructure requests. The average, just for the committee, for 18th Assembly was around $133 million, so it is a slight improvement. This year, when you look at the projects that got carried over from 2018-2019, there is a significant portion of them that are quite large projects. What that means in these cases is there are issues like projects timing or permitting or engagement with communities or even federal agreements. That can have a big impact on the value of the carry-overs, and I think you see that in the values that are here. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
