The plan was passed in the budget (and thus the authority to advertize it) but because the credit doesn't accrue until the end of this fiscal year, final ratification was left to a ways and means motion that would need to be completed this year. The spring budget is never the whole of the Government's spending plan as monies need to be allocated on a regular basis to pay for ongoing and new programs. There's nothing fishy about this other than the manipulation of the timing of the vote, which will be positioned before any opposition days, but that's the Government's perogative.
