I will reconvene the meeting.
We're still televised, and we want to go through the process of the votes, first of all on the main estimates. These are massive amounts of money, so they shouldn't be entered into lightly. We have to acknowledge that vote 1 is $14 billion in and of itself, so there is a certain gravity associated with playing with that kind of money. I'll ask the questions and you tell me whether the votes go or not.
Shall vote 1 under National Defence carry?
National Defence Vote 1--Operating expenditures..........$14,964,971,000
(Vote 1 agreed to on division)
