Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you, Ms. Hogan, for your wonderful work and thank you to your staff the good work they do.
I want to focus on a couple of comments you made in your opening remarks, particularly the remarks on the Investing in Canada plan and the $188 billion for that plan. You've indicated that you found that Infrastructure Canada's reporting was very poor and excluded “almost half” of the government's investment. You said that it did not capture “more than $92 billion” in funding.
The fact that it cannot report on these amounts I find incredible.
You mentioned that “the absence of clear and complete reporting on the Investing in Canada plan makes it difficult for parliamentarians and Canadians to know whether progress is being made against the intended objectives.” That is absolutely the case.
What reason did they give you for this “absence of clear and complete reporting” when you did the audit?
