The member is quite right about the PBO's analysis. It shows a slide into the right. It's not a huge shock in the most recent year, given COVID. There is regular inflation, plus you're also seeing inflation in defence markets. Often it's slightly higher, so there is an impact.
That means one of two things. You have to descope your project to a certain extent. If you were going to buy 10 of item X, maybe you buy only nine. A lot of the initiatives are scalable.
The other possibility is to reallocate resources if there are high-priority projects and you don't want to make that decision. You move money from a lesser-priority project into a higher-priority project.
The third option is additional funding. Those are the three choices one has.
