The committee can ask anything of the Auditor General, but there is no guarantee that she will agree.
The committee must therefore decide whether it wants to send a proposal to the Office of the Auditor General of Canada. That said, the committee must decide whether this subject is really a priority. Personally, I can't say, but if you want to continue along these lines, Mr. Lemire, I would suggest that you talk to your committee colleagues in the corridors, outside this process. Your idea could be backed by the committee, but I think you need to talk a bit about it first.
If I can speak on behalf of the members, we try to make requests to the Auditor General when it's a real priority of the committee, but we don't want to submit one request after another. In this particular case, we may agree that the request is acceptable, but I just wanted to make that point.
