Fisheries committee We have over a thousand harbours we're still responsible for.

Fisheries committee Roughly 350.

Fisheries committee Those would be recreational and non-core harbours, for example.
November 21st, 2006Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Perhaps I can add a few words. With the $200 million over five years, based on our analysis and a report—I believe the committee is aware of a study which was done five years ago—we could end up with 750 small craft harbours in fairly good condition. Today, for example, about 20%

Fisheries committee The amount we use for maintenance of our harbours is the bulk of our budget--around $80 million, I believe. That includes both major and minor capital.

Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee The $22.5 million--
November 21st, 2006Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Out of our total budget, out of that $96 million or $97 million, roughly $80 million is spent on the maintenance of the harbours.

Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee I'm not sure if I'm following you.
November 21st, 2006Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee I'm sorry, I wasn't on the same page you were, in more ways than one. The $22 million is what we define as major capital, so that means expenditures of over $1 million.
November 21st, 2006Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Yes, the $78 million would include minor capital plus salaries, etc., and that sort of thing.
November 21st, 2006Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee I don't have the information by region, if that's your question. The other figures we've just been discussing are our estimates, based on that study, of what we would need for the whole program to bring the harbours up to par.
November 21st, 2006Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Yes, that's the increase, main over main.
November 21st, 2006Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Yes. Basically, that's the notional distribution of how the funds will be spent. But that, of course, relates to the higher amount, which includes the supplementary estimates, still not appropriated. Slide 8, for example, shows the expenditures for the additional amount of the
November 21st, 2006Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee That's correct.
November 21st, 2006Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee That's right, except, as the deputy alluded to, whenever there's capital slippage, as there is occasionally in a budget the size of ours, small craft harbours can take additional money towards the end of the fiscal year. So this is our planned spending at the moment, but my guess
