Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for being here today to answer questions on chapter 5 of the report.
I'm going to go back to paragraph 5.37 for a moment. I don't feel that we had clarity with regard to the questions that were asked by my colleague Mr. Allen.
It's quite evident on page 12 of the report that with regard to the project delay, it was the result of a difference of opinion between the Canada Border Services Agency and Citizenship and Immigration Canada with regard to critical function. It did result in a three-month delay and an additional cost of $2.3 million because the agency had to extend a vendor contract.
I would like to know what the critical function was, and why did it take three months and $2.3 million to resolve this within the department. What was the difference of opinion that wasn't seen until it got to this stage?
