Thank you, Mr. Chair.
As Ms. Owens said, it is very difficult to provide a summary in 10 minutes. This is all the more so when you have only seven minutes to ask questions aimed at deepening a subject.
Still, I would like to talk about what can be done to make it possible for small and medium businesses can do business with the government and to ensure that they are quality suppliers who qualify and who remain suppliers thereafter.
How many small and medium businesses do business with the government once and cease to be suppliers afterwards, either because it became too complicated and caused problems for them, or because they weren't qualified?
Do you consider situations like this?
Do you have statistics for that?
Then, do you implement a game plan or corrective action, so that the government doesn't always deal with the same companies that look good and, for a variety of reasons, have found the right way to do business with it?
Have analyses been done on this?
Is corrective action taken to encourage companies that have done very little business with the government to do so again?
I don't know who would like to answer.
Ms. Reza or Mr. Gray, would you like to?
