Thank you, Mr. Chair.
In passing, Ms. Fraser, I want to congratulate you for strongly protecting your independence. You have had to postpone advertising for a hiring process because you wanted clearly to express your independence from the government. I thank you for having held to your position and I congratulate you.
My question relates to Chapter 2. At page 2, you refer to some of the concerns from commanding officers about weaknesses in the supply chain but you add that you did not find any reports of such problems in the supply chain. I find it troubling that there would be no such reports because, later in the document, you state that the military has lost track of $7 million worth of equipment, which is significant. I find it disquieting that there would be no reports on those concerns that were expressed to you.
What were the concerns of commanding officers?
