My question is addressed to Minister Strahl.

The supplementary estimates will allocate $587.1 million more to the Infrastructure Stimulus Fund. Is this new allocation due to the fact that you have received more requests for reimbursements from project proponents than were initially anticipated? Why do you want to have this additional $587 million?
