Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Gentlemen, I'm new to this committee, and I feel honoured today to be in the presence of folks like you, who lead our armed forces. I want to tell you that I share the appreciation my colleagues have for the military and its leadership, such as you. Thank you for attending. It's a privilege to be able to ask you some questions about how you operate the military.
I really appreciated hearing your explanations.
I had a couple of questions. I know that these programs are well designed and well thought out before they're put into force. What type of oversight do you currently have to gauge the success of the programs on an ongoing basis, or semi-annually--whichever is the mark?
