Mr. Chair, the inflationary pressure increases that we are seeking in supplementary estimates are in fact related to fiscal year 2007-08. In the past we were required to justify all of those increases negotiated with Treasury Board. We had to determine an affordable amount for the increases to be funded and then seek it, so it was in fact related to lease increases that had already taken place.
