The difficulty we have is that main estimates have to be tabled by March 1. Budgets are typically delivered in February—in this case it was late January—but main estimates cannot reflect what's in the budget.
Last year we brought in spring supplementary estimates because departments otherwise have to cash manage all those budget items until December, when the first supplementary estimates normally are provided.
This year we will have supplementary estimates again to pick up budget items, but in addition, we felt it was necessary to have some bridge funding to both supplementary estimates (A) and (B) to allow for the delivery of what is really a massive amount of stimulus. It's a $20 billion program in this year. So that's really the rationale for Treasury Board vote 35.
