Thank you. I'm going to go to the Member from Frame Lake.
Okay, thank you, Mr. Chair. I appreciate that clarification. So while the funding may not be tendered, when we say uncommitted there are projects slated for that funding, so that's that funding is the $60 million is part of this list of builds that you listed out for me I'm not going to go through them all again, but it's part of that to occur in 20242025?
Thank you. I'll go to the Minister.
Yes, that is correct, Mr. Chair. Thank you.
Thank you. I'll go back to the Member from Frame Lake.
Okay, thank you, Mr. Chair. Last but not least, I would appreciate it it would be much easier for me to keep track of all this if the department was able to give us kind of a one or two sheet kind of just summary of this, all the information she just provided me, just so I can have it on hand if that's okay, in writing.
Okay, thank you. I'm going to go to the Minister.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, we can provide that, Mr. Chair. Thank you.
Okay, we're having a good day. Thank you. I'm going to go to the Member from Frame Lake.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. That's going to be it for me for questions on this page. That was a lot of information. Thank you to the Minister and her staff for giving that to me.
Thank you. Any further questions from Members for page 379? We'll go to the Member from Inuvik Boot Lake.
Thank you, Mr. Chair, and I won't be long. I just need a little clarity because it seems like there was a little bit of a contradiction in the answer. When I asked the question out of the $93 million surplus how much was not committed, the answer I got was $60 million was yet to be committed. So did the Minister mean yet to be tendered or yet to be committed?
Thank you. I'll go to the Minister to the question.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, yet to be tendered, Mr. Chair. Thank you.
Thank you. I'll go to the Member from Inuvik Boot Lake.
Okay, thank you. So the entire $60 million has projects attached to it, buildings attached to it, for 20242025, and then the remainder of the $93 million is carryover from ongoing projects that started last year previous year, is that correct?
Thank you. I'm going to go to the Minister to the question.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, that's correct. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you. I'm going to go to the Member from Inuvik Boot Lake.
Thank you. Sorry if I seemed confused, I just want to make sure I have the proper information. And of the $60 million that is earmarked for projects that is yet to be tendered, those projects were all projects that were scheduled for 20242025, or are those projects that carried over from previous years and/or projects that will move into next fiscal year?
Thank you. I'll go to the Minister.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, a majority of the projects were carried forward, Mr. Chair. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you. I'll go to the Member from Inuvik Boot Lake.
Okay. So the majority of the $60 million is projects that weren't done last year. For various and sundry reasons that we discussed earlier about capacity and contractors and so on and so forth? Okay, thank you, Mr. Chair. No further questions.
Thank you. Is there any further questions? Seeing no further questions, does committee agree that the consideration of Housing Northwest Territories is now complete? Member from Inuvik Boot Lake.
