Thank you, Mr. Chair.
On pistols, I wanted to flag for the committee that this is a great example of the requirements that were initially laid out by National Defence through PSPC being so specific that a competitor said this was not a fair and open competition because they had effectively made them so narrow that the competitor couldn't compete.
They appropriately challenged it at the CITT and went back to the drawing board. We were able to turn the request for proposal around very quickly and get it back out, but it's an example of how, if one is too specific with the requirements, they actually limit competition and effectively maybe limit the solution. I think there are valuable lessons in that for all of us.
