Mr. Chair, at this time I'd like to move a motion related to the testimony we've heard on the integrated relocation program. That motion is:
That, the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates invite the Minister of Public Works and Government Operations and officials to appear before committee to provide an update on any specific measures taken, if any, to address issues and concerns with procurement for Relocation Services under the Integrated Relocation Program, including:
1. Revisions to policy and practice in response to concerns and recommendations in the November 2006 Report of the Auditor General,
2. Revisions to policy and practice in response to the judgment and award against the Government of Canada in the case of Envoy Relocation Services Inc. vs. The Attorney General of Canada, which held that the Crown breached express terms of the RFP, breached its duty of fair and equal treatment in the conduct of these procurement process in relation to property management component of the RFP, that the weighting in the selection formula was intentionally amended to one particular bidder and that the Crown's conduct on the issue of amending the selection formula constituted in bad faith.
3. Any additional changes to the relocation program procurement processes.
