Mr. Chairman, I will have to repeat myself. I asked for a verification, but I took no decision. I was not in favour of maintaining this decision and seeing the taxpayers foot the bill. However, I was told that extra office space was needed and that the space in Place Bonaventure would be used by public servants, that the government needed more space. I simply requested that this be looked into. The verification was carried out, and Public Works and Government Services Canada took a decision. I know that the public servants were satisfied.
