Thank you, Ms. Lee. Is committee agreed?

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. We’ll now open the floor to general comments on Bill 9. Mr. Krutko.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Just for the record, I’m not interested in renegotiating the AIP. I know that we’ve had professionals who have taken our message to the federal government and they’ve negotiated this deal and they’ve got to the point where the AIP is done. It’s done. There’s no more negotiation on it. It’s in front of us. We either accept it or we don’t accept it. So I’m not interested in renegotiating it.

I’m just interested in standing behind it. It’s public. It’s already gone. The press has it. It’s on their website. I’m okay with standing behind this document saying, this is what we...

Thank you, committee. Mr. Miltenberger, if I could get you to please thank your witness and, Sergeant-at-Arms, if I could get you to please escort him out, that would be great.

As agreed earlier, the next department on our list is the Department of Finance, which is in section three of the binder. Michael Miltenberger, do you have witnesses that you wish to bring into the Chamber?

Thank you, Ms. Lee. I would now like to ask the chairperson for the Standing Committee on Social Programs, which reviewed this bill, to make comments. Mr. Beaulieu.

Thank you, Mr. Bromley. For confirmation, Mr. Bohnet. Mr. Miltenberger.

Is committee agreed?

Mr. Speaker, thanks to the Premier for that. I look forward to seeing the plain language document or whatever we are going to call it when it comes out.

Like I said, I have read the AIP. It is not the easiest read out there. There is a lot of information in there. There are a lot of things that need to be thought about, considered and talked about.

My question to the Premier is: What kind of timeline are we looking at? You mentioned that there are some things that need to be done before this can come out, but people are talking about it today. If you go out into the streets, people will ask you...

We’ve concluded detail so we will go back to page 11-2 for the department summary. Environment and Natural Resources, department summary, infrastructure investment summary, total infrastructure investment summary, $1.653 million.

Agreed. Is committee agreed that we have concluded the Department of Finance?
