With all due respect, I have to interrupt you. There are a lot of topics I'd like to discuss. If your team has the answers, you can simply send them to the committee. I would appreciate that.
The third topic I would like to discuss with you is the amount in the budget for infrastructure. I'm confused. On page 7 of the introduction, it mentions $280 billion over five years. In chapter 1, on page 101, it says $115 billion over five years. In the table at the end of the chapter, on page 124, it says there will actually be $9 billion in new money. You have to subtract. The government says we should invest $20.1 billion in infrastructure for future generations, but subtract the $11.73 billion in previously provisioned funds, and you get $9 billion.
How much new infrastructure money is actually in your budget?
Again, if you don't have the amount handy, please don't hesitate to send us the answer in writing.
