Mr. Chairman, I believe the member is quoting from chapter 1 of our report, which deals with the overall G-8 and G-20 summits, the funding requests, and the planning for this project. The key issue the member is alluding to that we included in our report has to do with how those funding requests were presented to Parliament. Two separate years, 14 departments, multiple requests--it would have been almost impossible for Parliament to figure out exactly how much funding was being asked for, for these two summits. So we recommended that there should be some sort of aggregate reporting of the funding requests for initiatives this big.
I believe the government has agreed with that. I believe as well that it has been discussed by one of your sister committees, another committee of the House of Commons. The government operations and estimates committee has looked at this, and as I recall, there's a recommendation coming from that committee that for initiatives like this, exceeding $500 million, there should be consolidated reporting to Parliament, and I believe that's a sound recommendation as well.
