Clause 17.
Thank you, Mr. Ramsay. Mr. Roland.
Thank you, Minister Dent. Does the committee agree?
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the point that I make…and I'd like to thank the Minister for pointing out that I don't understand the budgeting process of this government, because I have only been here 12 years but I am sure I will get on to it next term. Mr. Speaker, the fact that we are just on an ad hoc basis looking for money here and there to give to this very important initiative, will the Minister just admit that arts and performing arts and cultural activities are just not a priority to this government? Thank you.
