Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Great Slave, that Bill 39, Supplementary Appropriation Act (Infrastructure Expenditures), No. 4, 2014-2015, be read for the second time.
Mr. Speaker, this bill makes supplementary appropriations for infrastructure expenditures for the Government of the Northwest Territories for the 2014-2015 fiscal year. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. To the principle of the bill. Mr. Bromley.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I just want to register my concern about this bill. I think, given our fiscal status, we are going out on a limb here. There is no need to advance $40 million on the Inuvik-Tuktoyaktuk Highway Project in particular, given that there is no record of performance on that project on which to base such a decision and there is ample time to do that during the winter session, which starts a couple of months from now. I just want to make sure that was clear that we are making this decision to advance a considerable amount of money, given our fiscal status and all the unexpected expenditures that we have had this year, to advance a very significant amount of money and I wanted to register my concern about that. Mahsi.
Thank you, Mr. Bromley.
