Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Minister, it is wonderful to welcome you back to the committee. Thank you so much for your introductory remarks.
Canadians want reliable and fast access to government services online, and I would say that this has become more true during COVID than at any other time. At the same time, staff are looking for fast and reliable digital tools and platforms for collaboration across ministries and across teams as well. They're looking for software that is fast, reliable, collaborative and responsive.
In the main estimates, we see a transfer of $158.8 million from other government departments, OGD, to Shared Services Canada, SSC, for the Government of Canada information technology enterprise service model. Can you provide us with the purpose of this funding?
