Fisheries committee No, I do not.

Fisheries committee That could be part of the business case that my colleague mentioned.
April 1st, 2008Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee I think so. Nevertheless, I want to emphasize that the lack of resources I alluded to has nothing to do with existing site contamination. We have other funds available to us to address that problem. However, we will endeavour to get these estimates to you.
April 1st, 2008Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee We feel that it should be allocated all at once, since we want to raise standards for lighthouses.
April 1st, 2008Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Mr. Chair, you just alluded to the fact that this is probably a year old. Those cost estimates were predicated on the bill at that time. There have been some revisions that have brought the estimation down somewhat.

Fisheries committee There are 51.

Fisheries committee Have these sites already been divested, then, from the federal government?
April 1st, 2008Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Going back to an earlier discussion, using the federal contaminated sites action plan funding, my understanding is that we would have to bring these up to a reasonable standard, which would include addressing contamination.
April 1st, 2008Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Basically, the short answer is that right now—not to suggest we aren't spending any money on lighthouses, because we are, for health and safety reasons, obviously, on the ones we have staffed, and I alluded to this—we are spending a minimal amount of money. If this bill goes thro

Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Thanks, Deputy. Good morning, Chair and members. I'm going to be speaking fairly briefly to the overview of the 2008-09 estimates. I'm on page 3. You can see what the deputy has already mentioned, the increase between last year's estimates and the current year's estimates. T

Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee I'm not familiar with the one you're referring to specifically, but I guess an answer to your question is yes, it can happen. I think the Digby harbour is one I would put forward as an example of that. It's still not resolved, but that was originally a Transport Canada harbour an
May 1st, 2008Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee The only thing I would add is that if you look at the report on plans and priorities on page 12--and the deputy is quite right, the final figures aren't in yet--it shows the planned spending figure. It would include the supplementary estimates A and B. Our total planned spending
May 1st, 2008Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Again, if we look at slide 6 of the presentation, there's an item there on the 2007 cost efficiencies. That relates, as I said in passing, to “The Way Forward”, the Public Works and Government Services Canada procurement reform. These savings have been booked right across governm
May 1st, 2008Committee meeting
Cal Hegge
Fisheries committee Thank you for the question. As you rightly point out, the enablers are allocated over all of the program areas. It's a rather complicated algorithm, I guess, that's used, and if you want me to get into the details of that, I'd have to do some homework and come back to speak to
