Mr. Speaker, I would also like to table again, in support of the estimates, part I, the government expenditure plan.
In addition I will table with the Clerk of the House, on behalf of my colleagues, part III of the estimates consisting of 78 departmental expenditure plans. These documents will be distributed to the members of the standing committees to facilitate their consideration of the spending authority requested in part II.
These documents are identical to the budget documents tabled in the House on February 20, 1997.
