Government Operations Committee on Oct. 31st, 2023

[Garnett Genuis, Conservative, Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB]

It was for copies of all task authorizations related to work done by Coradix, Dalian and GC Strategies for the Government of Canada. That was the first one that we agreed to.

Then you said that we had to request it from someone, and I said from the companies themselves.

[The Chair, Conservative, Kelly McCauley]

The summoned have to be named as someone.

[Garnett Genuis, Conservative, Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB]

Okay, I'm sorry; requests for information don't require that, okay.

[The Clerk]

And the request for information as well, so I can clearly task the assignment to whomever. This will be going to both Coradix and Dalian.

[Garnett Genuis, Conservative, Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB]

And it's going to GC.

[The Clerk]

Oh, it's going to GC, yes.

Is there a chance of getting overlap of the same information from all three parties? I'm just curious.

[Garnett Genuis, Conservative, Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB]

Maybe, but that would—

[The Chair, Conservative, Kelly McCauley]

Based on the [Inaudible—Editor ] they had a non-compete agreement. Dalian has non-compete agreement with GC, so there shouldn't be.

[Garnett Genuis, Conservative, Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB]

Okay, thank you.

[The Clerk]

That was “in 30 days following the adoption of this motion”. Did you wish to set a time, or do you want 11:59?

[The Chair, Conservative, Kelly McCauley]

We want it to be at noon.

[The Clerk]

That is very much appreciated, thank you, sir.

The second order for production of documents is “That the committee send for a list of subcontractors used by Coradix, Dalian and GC Strategies for Government of Canada contracts for the previous 12 years”, so it's sending for documents from Dalian, Coradix and GC Strategies, “and the documents be provided to the clerk of the committee in 30 days following the adoption of this motion”. If you want to set a time, that would be appreciated as well.

[Garnett Genuis, Conservative, Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB]

It should be by noon.

[The Clerk]

Thank you, sir.

Does that accurately capture it?

(Motion as amended agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

[The Chair, Conservative, Kelly McCauley]

Unless there's something else, we'll finish three minutes early.

We are adjourned.
