Yes, I sure can.
First, I should distinguish between the initial contribution by Canada only toward the establishment of the secretariat--and that's $5 million over five years and it's $1.8 million next year. This was a proposal brought forward by the Minister of Finance to the Egmont Group. Other jurisdictions brought forward proposals to host the secretariat, and part of ours included that level of financial support. We, in effect, won the competition to have the permanent secretariat located in Canada--not just for that reason. There were a number of other considerations that the committee reviewed and took into account.
So there's cost to establish the secretariat, and Canada only is paying for that.
Starting next year, in July 2008, the secretariat of the Egmont will collect member dues from its 100 members, and those 100 members will pay based on their GDP and GDP per capita. So a formula has been developed. Clearly, G7 and G8 countries like us will pay proportionally more than countries that are still developing. We can certainly provide those figures to you to give you a sense of the specific numbers.
Overall, the annual operating budget of the secretariat is expected to be in the range of a little over $1 million Canadian each year. So you have a little over $1 million divided by 100 members.
