Thank you for the clarifications, Ms. Thomas.
In your opening remarks, you referred to the challenges associated with the current COVID-19 pandemic. We know that the audit dates back to 2017 and that there was no pandemic at that time.
How can you explain the issues identified by the Office of the Auditor General throughout the chain of command at National Defence? Could a lack of internal communication explain these gaps in the supply chain? Could other issues be involved?
