All right, 16 minutes. Well, I will bowl a few overs and see what the Minister wants to tell us this evening before we come to an end. Starting with the Cabinet Office, which is on page B -41, Head 9. It does show savings of some $18 million, but as the Minister explained that is because $19 million [from] …

There were two that I asked that you didn’t answer. Or one you answered in part. First of all, it was where on page B -51 was the money for MyBermudaPost? On what line item? That was the specific question. Hon. Vance Campbell: Can you repeat that again?

Yes, was on page B -51. Where is the MyBermudaPost line item for the revenue? You remember the question about $300,000 [sic] that I misspoke and said $300 million. I was just curious where it is on that. And then secondly, in relation to the postings in Brussels and Washington, you answered that it was overheads. But during your brief …

I can try. Head 51, page B -64, in relation to the COMS [communications] mailings that you were talking about being mailed out by the Gov ernment. Do you have a budgetary figure for those COMS mailings? What the annual cost was for all of those mailings you referred to. [Pause]

I am happy to take it from the Minister by email at a later date if he does not have it at hand. Hon. Vance Campbell: I don’t have it handy right now and I can provide that to the Honourable Member in the not-too-distant future.

The Honourable Member is imputing improper motive. If he was going to suggest that there was something untoward in relation to payments made to a firm in which I am related, he better damn well have facts. Because he doesn’t!

The Honourable Member is imputing improper motive. If he is going to suggest any impropriety, he needs some proof. He does! And you know that, Mr. Speaker. It is not proper. It is not proper conduct in this House.

Point of order, Madam Chairman. The Honourable Minister is misleading the House. The Opposition did not double the debt in four years as can be seen from the Budget Book. Thank you.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Speaker . Mr. Speaker, it is sometimes helpful just for the purposes of the Hansard to talk about what a Bill is seeking to achieve and in effect this Bill is doing three things. Firstly, it is creating two separate categories for the development of residential units —those that are in the EEZ only, and those …

Sorry, Mr. Speaker, with your leave, the Bill itself is already on the Order Paper. Is this a new Bill? Or is this a substitution? The Bill was tabled a couple of days ago.

Thank you. I will take that and I will pose a question to the Honourable and gallant Minister to my left.
