Thank you.
Mr. Chair, in English, we use the word "accommodations". That is part of our mandate. When it comes to real property, PWGSC's mandate spans a number of regions.
We deal with fit-ups and leases, so everything that makes it possible to provide thousands of public servants with a place to work every day. In fact, we provide 272,000 public servants with work environments. Our portfolio includes nearly 7 million square metres of space used for various purposes.
The biggest part of our real property mandate is providing office space to most government employees. This office space can be property that we lease or property that we have bought and own.
