I'd like to address the member's comments.
My understanding is that this appearance by the minister would focus on what went on during the pandemic. How did the department handle the situation? What obstacles did it encounter? How many employees went into work and how many opted to work from home? What equipment was provided to them? Those are all questions specific to the pandemic.
The estimates study is another component, although the two aren't mutually exclusive. That's how I understood it.
