Thank you.

I'll turn to the Coast Guard. In its first quarterly report, submitted to this committee on November 4 in response to the committee's report on the closure of the Comox MCTS centre, DFO indicated that there were 74 outages related to the MCTS communications control system, and 50% of the system failures were caused by third party telecommunication issues.

How does DFO manage these system failures? What corrective measures have been established as a result?
