Thank you very much for the question.
I may tag with my colleagues here.
“Contingent liability” is an accounting term. As stated in the PBO report, if there is certainty that the Government of Canada will have to pay, and if the number that is used is greater than 70% and we are able to estimate the amount, then we should recognize a liability. That liability is recognized in the public accounts.
Once the liability is recognized, now it's a question of when and how that amount will be paid. When we have certainty on this, the department will come to Treasury Board, which will do their due diligence in terms of the money, in terms of making sure the implementation plans are accurate. Afterwards, that amount will be included in the estimates—either the main estimates or the supplementary estimates.
Thank you.
