I understand that Global Affairs is responsible for its own due diligence, and I'm not questioning that process. My understanding is that the reason Treasury Board gets involved in transactions over the $10-million threshold is to provide an added layer of accountability and due diligence on behalf of the Canadian public.
Given the challenges that we've seen in procurement government-wide, why wouldn't we have, just for the sake of caution, a lower threshold in order to ensure that there are more eyes on each transaction and that Canadians are getting the best value?
