Great.
The point Mr. Green raises is entirely relevant. However, we've had time to translate and distribute the motion. So you'll have a written version of it.
The second reason why I wanted to address this subject immediately is that it must be clearly noted that the committee needs this information, these figures, to analyze the Auditor General's report. She has come to certain conclusions regarding information to which we don't have access. However, the Standing Committee on Public Accounts, in particular, must be able to access figures, data and recommendations that supported this program's implementation. This is essential.
Once again, it might simply show that the Department of Finance and the Canada Revenue Agency did their job and that they did it correctly. We might know that if we had that information, but we don't have all the necessary figures for the moment. The goal here isn't to find a guilty party but rather to form a clear understanding of what motivated certain decisions, particularly the decision not to use social insurance numbers and not to calculate the risks immediately. More especially, we'd like to know the timeline that was followed in developing the program. That information is essential if we're to prepare a report that reflects the actual situation.
