Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the P3 policy is separate; it wasn't part of the review that was done in looking at the fiscal responsibility policy so that it simply wasn't part of it. It's a different policy all together.

Mr. Speaker, at this point in time there's not any active work happening with respect to a P3. So this is not something that is you know, there's not an active concern around growing numbers of P3 projects. What we do have are the some projects that are ongoing that where there are operational expenses now because rather than investing huge amounts of sums at the...

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, the Member is correct. This was moved over to the following fiscal year, which is expected to be when that amount will be fully spent.

As for project timelines and activities, we are expecting to have this contract awarded this fall, which means it would then be being built and then implemented thereafter over the next it takes approximately two years and with a golive date to follow. So, you know, early in 2025.

Thank you, Madam Chair. So this is where on infrastructure supplementary appropriations there isn't a supplementary reserve for infrastructure. And as I said, I think there's some information that we do provide to committee that could stand a bit of a look at the terminology that's used to make that more clear because it wouldn't show there wouldn't be a net impact because there's nothing to be impacting upon. That said, Madam Chair, there is I mean, again well, I'll leave it at that. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. So, Madam Chair, at this point the net impact doesn't have us going into any new debt on this one actually, Madam Chair, sorry, let me I think I'm looking at the wrong page. Let me direct that to the deputy minister.

Madam Chair, again, I don't have that level of detail of what the conservation approach might be. My understanding is that this is meant to help with the developing what candidate areas there are going to be. So I would leave that to a question for people over at employment ECC to provide further detail on, and I can obviously convey that to my colleague. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the fiscal policy review was something that is an internal policy looking at a way of evaluating what we do as a government and how we manage our budgets, how we design our budgets. It was completed by the fiscal policy division as the primary lead within the Department of Finance but also with input from some of the other departments that look at this type of work and that do this type of work, such as the comptroller general's office, the management board secretariat. We certainly did look at counterparts across other governments to see what they might do...

Thank you, Madam Chair. So it is a federal fund. I can't necessarily speak to the details of the federal fund. But for the purposes here, it is supporting the nursing call bells in the Deh Cho Region and as well as in Avens Seniors. So in Avens Senior Home, it's to provide for oxygen concentrators, shower shares, patient lifts, medication carts, fridges, infection prevention and control. So, you know and that's in relation to, again, a longterm care facility. And in the Deh Cho region, it's related to nursing call bells, again in relation to longterm care facilities. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. So to clarify, we'll provide the copy of the survey results confidentially to MLAs but I would also say we'll put something together that we could put together with the public information that is coming as a result of commitments. I know it does get raised in the House with respect to IT projects and what's happening with them. And there are you know, it takes a bit of time for a new team to come together, and I know there's been some projects, Mineral Resources Act being one, that wind up going back to a department function. So some understanding as to the benefits of...

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, on my left I have Bill MacKay, who is the deputy minister of Finance. And on my right Kristal Melanson, director of management board secretariat.

Madam Chair, Ms. Melanson has a brief description. I propose she provide it.
