Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Hay River South, that Bill 9, Appropriation Act (Operations Expenditures), 2016-2017, be read for the first time. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, this is ongoing construction. The project is nearing completion. The carryover is required to address deficiencies in the dental multipurpose room. The work is planned to start in the summer of 2016 and be completed prior to the fiscal year end. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Yellowknife South that Bill 9, Appropriation Act (Operations Expenditures), 2016-2017, be read for the third time. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, yes, in October, we will bring it forward during the capital budget planning session. There is no opportunity between now and then because this House is not sitting to advance it any earlier. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, to be quite honest with you I’m not sure what… I would assume the first two would be road-widening because there is some work going on for road widening. As for “RWIS” I will get the acronym and distribute it to Members. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, it wouldn’t show up in this sup, but it will show up in our capital budget session in the fall. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, as far as the Willow River Bridge, I’m not sure of the exact detail, the various or where they’re going. I will confirm that and share it with the Member, like I’ve been doing a lot of sharing today with the Members. Some of the details don’t have the level of detail that might be being asked for, so I will have to get that detail and share it with the Member. I said that, like, three times, so. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the federal government investment in this initiative would be $400,000. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the site study was awarded and should be complete in June 2016. Then this was funding required to meet our contract commitments. As to the actual start date, I don’t have that level of detail, but I’m sure we’ll have a better idea once we have an opportunity to review the study, and I will share that with the Member from Mackenzie Delta. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, this is for an amount in capital upgrades to support addition of junior kindergarten classrooms to existing facilities. The short answer is no, they won’t lose that funding. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
