Government Services Committee — Department of Human Resources was contacted on this - or community services - about these households. MR. J. BYRNE: Both. MR. K. AYLWARD: Were they both contacted on this? Yes? Was there any insurance on the houses? WITNESS: (Inaudible). MR. K. AYLWARD: No insurance? Okay. I certainly wouldn't mind checking out whichever. If there are two of them, I wouldn't mind being notified of where they are. I certainly will check with the other departments to see whether or not maybe there are some resources they might have. MR. J. BYRNE: Thank you. I will move on. I don't know what part your department plays in this but your department, with the Department of Forest Resources and Agrifoods, with respect to the spray program this year for the hemlock looper and sawfly, if there is going to be one this year, what chemicals will be used? When will it occur, and what will be the projected cost of the program? Also, how successful was the program last year? MR. K. AYLWARD: Mr. Chairman, there will be a spray program this year. I will ask the officials to maybe give some more detail, but there will be a spray program. There is a major problem on the Northern Peninsula, in Central and parts of the West Coast with both of those, the sawfly and the hemlock looper, this year. I believe that the Department of Forestry has put an application in for a spray program through environmental assessment and that includes, is it Mimic, I think is one, is it Ken? MR. DOMINIE: Yes, Mimic and Bt. Bt is a bacteriological agent; Mimic is a chemical agent. So, these two projects have been registered under the environment assessment process. They are undergoing assessment at the moment. I do not have the dates when the decision is (inaudible), but they will come because they were registered, I do believe, about a month ago. MR. J. BYRNE: So, the funding for these programs will come out of Forestry and Agriculture, I suppose, will it? MR. K. AYLWARD: Yes, it will come out
