Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I seek unanimous consent to proceed with first reading of Bill 10, Supplementary Appropriation Act (Infrastructure Expenditures), No. 7, 2010-2011.

---Unanimous consent granted

BILL 10:

SUPPLEMENTARY APPROPRIATION ACT

(INFRASTRUCTURE EXPENDITURES),

NO. 7, 2010-2011

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I wish to table the following document, entitled “Traditional Knowledge Annual Report 2011-2012.” Thank you.

I’ll commit to have discussions with the Minister of ITI, and we’ll look at what’s being recommended in terms of going forward. I’ll make sure that I have enough information about the mechanics of setting up a tax credit, so that if the Member raises the issue or wants to discuss it further, we’ll have that detail so we can have an informed discussion. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We’d have to look at that specific subject. We’d have to look at other jurisdictions, many of which are, in fact, removing their tax credits, look at the pros and cons and then try to factor it in and bring it forward through a business planning and budgetary process. Thank you.
