Thank you. We know that besides the huge cost savings that will be achieved with this consolidation, there will also be the improvement in services to Canadians. We also know that the need to update our systems was identified, so I want to go back to the question my colleague asked with regard to weighing the benefits against the risks.
In your executive summary you stated that
In summary, the GoC has a strong opportunity to move from a federated data centre environment to a highly coordinated, enterprise service delivery model.
I'm going to suggest that we have this strong opportunity, and the need has been identified that something has to be done with our systems, so why is it important for the Government of Canada to pursue this strong opportunity at this time and not wait any longer?
