When we were established in December of 2006, Budget 2006 set aside $15.6 million on a one-time basis to allow us to achieve the separation the minister just described.
We couldn't have immediately gone out to end the leases across the country; that would have been too expensive. So what we did was take immediate measures to ensure there was a separation of our organization from that of Justice, and as leases have expired we've moved into new premises. Therefore, that $15.6 million hasn't been used in the first year; we've been using it prudently over the years.
The $3 million that you see in the estimates is money we've asked to be reprofiled into the new year so we can pay for a consolidation of our headquarters. At present our headquarters staff are located in four buildings in downtown Ottawa. We share space with the Department of Justice in three other locations. The goal of that money is to be able to show Public Works that we can pay for the reallocation to one central building.
