Mr. Bains has summarized my thinking on this matter. I believe that we are entitled to that information. In the past, I used the same argument about the report of National Defense. I insisted to have dates. Ultimately, the report we received from National Defense was very useful. This proves that it is sometimes useful to ask for more detailed information.
In this committee, we cannot question the ministers. Therefore, we have to have accountability from the officials responsible for that program. Asking for information is perfectly legitimate. The Federal Accountability Act is under our purview. Some additional information has been provided by the department, revealing the extent of problems relating to governance, decisions made and accountability. If we have enough time, I believe that our duty is to carry out this kind of study. The information we will receive will allow for a more in-depth study.
