Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I have written questions regarding the maintenance contract at Highway No. 1. My questions are to the Minister of Transportation.

What is the annual maintenance budget for each section of Highway No. 1, including the ice crossing?

What is the total amount spent on maintenance on Highway No. 1 since 2010-11?

Which companies have been awarded maintenance contracts on Highway No. 1 since 2010-11, and what was the rationale for selecting them?

How does the department review contracts or contractor and in-house maintenance work on Highway No. 1?

How does the department monitor and consider the impact of weather conditions on the maintenance work it performs on Highway No. 1?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
