Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, folks, for being with us today.
Hopefully, Mr. Campbell, I won't ask you a policy piece, but I'm sure you'll let me know if I do; whereas, Ms. Morgan, you'll feel free to answer the policy piece if I ask.
So let me start with you, Ms. Morgan, since we are talking about a policy piece. I'm referencing paragraph 6.40 on page 12 in the English version of chapter 6 of the Auditor General's report. In reference to the CSeries program, it suggests that perhaps we should have done some review around the 2009-10 period, but the department decided not to. Rather than do an interim review to see if the program was working well, the decision was taken to do it at the end. It's like counting the horses after the barn door has closed and they've all run away. You have to figure out if you had brown ones or polka dot ones or exactly what you had. I could have had more polka dot ones because I like polka dot horses more.
Why was the decision taken to do it when we had finished rather than, as the Auditor General suggested, doing it partway through and learning some lessons? Indeed, you might have kept doing the same thing if you were doing such a great job. On the other hand, we don't always do great things and sometimes there are some pieces that perhaps we need to do better or could change. Why wouldn't we have said that we should probably do that interim review, if you will?
