This is a narrow breadth. You proposed a motion about the committee's agenda, and I'm discussing the committee's agenda, Mr. Sousa.
The committee has, for the last four months, heard absolutely breathtaking testimony of various senior public servants and whistle-blowers accusing each other of lying and presenting devastating testimony about a $54-million contract for the development of an app that went to a company that had no internal capacity whatsoever to develop apps or do IT work. We gave $54 million to a company that subcontracted all the work, and we've already seen a devastating report from the procurement ombudsman.
We have an Auditor General's report coming out. The RCMP are investigating. The procurement ombudsman released her report. The Auditor General is investigating. This committee has been investigating, and the Liberal members say, “Nothing is going on here. Nothing's going on; what's there to study, guys?” Come on. When the Liberals think nothing is going on, when they say there's nothing to see here, Mr. Chair, that tells Conservatives that we need to dig even deeper.
There is important business that this committee had to deal with in the context of the ArriveScam scandal, and I believe that was the intention of the committee business. Nonetheless, the Liberals have made clear that they want to hide the information, that they don't want to have this discussion. They moved a motion on another subject that the committee has not even seen yet.
I'm sorry; when you table drop a motion that has not been distributed to members and there are 12 minutes left in the committee, that is not a serious attempt to adjudicate the issue. We will review the motion that Mr. Sousa has moved in good time. We will consider it; we will evaluate it, but this is obviously fundamentally not what this is about. This is about Mr. Sousa's building on his scandalous record with the Wynne government, trying to divert and bury the ArriveScam scandal investigation.
Since the Liberals are clearly opposed to doing that work, and since they have sought to dismiss the witness we had important questions for today, I think there's just nothing left to be done.
On that note, Mr. Chair, I move that we adjourn.
