Thank you, Chair.
Mr. Ferguson, your budget numbers for 2013-14 show that you spent about $4 million less than the allocation. Yet the appropriation for 2015-16 is $78.3 million, which is actually $10 million less than before; it's somewhere around 13% less of the total budget than before. Notwithstanding the fact that you actually only spent $84 million, the allocation of $78 million still makes it $6 million less.
Is there a reason that you believe you can work inside of that budget allocation? Is it going to make things slightly more difficult, or do you think that the things that you planned out...?
You did say earlier that the department plans out a three-year window of things that it wants to do. Based on those appropriations, do you feel that the three-year window doesn't have to be adjusted, that you can actually go forward with what the plan that would be in place?
