Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the Auditor General and her colleagues for once again being with us today.
I want to extend my recognition for the emergency work of all the procurement officials and those who have mobilized in the face of the pandemic. It's remarkable. So is the fact that the Auditor General was able to mobilize so quickly and conduct such a thorough examination on short notice. Hats off for that.
About 2.7 billion items of PPE were procured through about 400 contracts. You say you examined a representative sample of those contracts, and in your view the department gets a pretty robust and positive score. Would that be a fair characterization of your report?
