Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, it is something that we obviously have to wrestle with on an annual basis when we build a budget; about the size of the government as it is, the growth that happens and where we situate our services is in much of our discussion earlier and I am sure that there will be other items as we go forward.

It is something that we have to look at and I think overall when you compare our jurisdiction to many others, we have one of the better systems available. Yes, it does need improvement and we are trying to work with communities, regions and with the federal...

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the information that we have is that there are discussions happening in a number of these communities to see if in fact they can be established, but there are no concrete plans in place at this point beyond those that have been identified. Even with the ones that have been identified, this has been delayed from its initial implementation date due to some difficulties with getting it up and going. Thank you.

Yes, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the project that initially got started on was identified for the $350,000. As the project was proceeding, the Yellowknife Health and Social Services Authority wanted to further increase the space that they were working on and made the arrangements with the department to put more money into it. So this is the way we are recording it, is under their initiative it was to further increase the size of the project, the floor space, the offices, at their request, and they’re in agreement that they would put the $400,000 into it. But we do have to account for...

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, there is a plan to establish beverage recycling depots in the regional centres or regional locations. The setup process centres are in Yellowknife, Hay River, Inuvik; and depots in six communities: Fort Smith, Hay River, Fort Simpson, Yellowknife, Rae and Inuvik. That is the plan and I believe they are due to roll it out soon. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Thebacha, that Bill 1, Supplementary Appropriation Act, No. 1, 2005-2006, be read for the second time.

Madam Speaker, this bill makes supplementary appropriations for the Government of the Northwest Territories for the 2005-06 fiscal year. Thank you, Madam Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the project had increased and it expanded for that facility, which was to increase the client space from 1,500 square feet to 4,300 square feet. As well, there’s a construction of a mezzanine that will increase useable floor space by approximately another 2,300 square feet for total space of 6,500 square feet and that’s primarily the reason why the cost has increased. The Minister of Health and Social Services may have further detail on that. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I guess we’re just going to have to agree to disagree. I don’t think there’s anything that I can state that would be satisfactory to the Member about the moves that have occurred here. The rules have been followed. The rule that she uses and has quoted there is one where we’ve made a decision to transfer, and the decision has been made and then you notify the Members of that change. What we’re doing here is the decision has been made to accept the proposal, which kicks this into gear to come back to this House to say we need your approval for this...

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, as any Minister would bring forward, if it is the request, the approval of dollars would come to the FMB table if it is approval seeking direction, other than that it would go to the Cabinet table. In this case this has come to both. The information provided by the Minister requesting this was to proceed with this track and it was granted on the basis of then going forward and getting the approvals of this Assembly through the financial process, and that’s what we’re into right now. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I guess we could go around the clock on this. I have stated that the process, the guidelines that are here, we use when we make changes to a project. Whether the Member feels we're just using it to get around to say this is the formal process that we're now using…I've spoken to the Minister. He has indicated to me that when this project came up and why it hadn't proceeded in that year, why they needed to carry it over and re-identify it, it was identified at that point to the committee members that there were alternative options also being looked at.
