Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Manley, Ms. Wallin and Mr. Burney.
Mr. Manley, your second recommendation on the deployment of additional combat troops, as my colleague has just mentioned, does it in some way imply a rotation of Canadian troops?
You acknowledge that no insurgency can be defeated through military force alone, and you emphasize the importance of the other Ds, development and diplomacy.
On the development plan as such, you say the following: "CIDA's internal procedures should be altered as necessary to facilitate this shift in emphasis." (p. 36 in the English version).
As I understand it, this could mean that CIDA has failed in Afghanistan. What are the procedures that CIDA should alter?
