I would push back on that a bit, Ms. Carruthers, because we had a similar audit in 2019. A lot of the findings on the irregularities of contracting practices—contract splitting, a number of contracts not being signed properly and people not having the appropriate authority—were revealed in 2019, four years ago. I don't know how long you've been in your current role or at Global Affairs, but clearly nothing was learned and there wasn't any sort of systemic change within the department, because this is déjà vu all over again. Isn't that a fair statement?
