Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.

This knowledge, Mr. Speaker, helps the program or the department design efficiencies on deliverance; however, improvements are an ongoing prudent management...

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Looking back at the November 2nd presentation here it refers to "Tourism 2020: Opening our Spectacular Home to the World to View." This five-year strategy is our government's plan for creating a $207 million-a-year industry by the year 2021. So that's the given target and the given objectives, and now I see on this budget it's supported by the number of $400,000. So I'm glad to hear that there is a plan and it's supported by the resources in order to implement that initiative. So it's more of a comment, Mr. Chair. Thank you.
