Mr. Speaker, yesterday, we learned that despite the budget statements and documents tabled by the Minister of Finance barely two months ago, the year end budget surpluses will not be allocated to the infrastructure foundation and the Africa fund, but that from now on, these two funds would be funded over a certain number of years from the government's general revenues.
How can the Minister of Finance explain this flip-flop a few weeks after tabling his latest budget, other than admitting the fact that he committed a serious error of management, that the surpluses will be far greater than forecast and that it would be incongruous for the government to put this many billions of dollars into infrastructure and the Africa fund?
