It's a fair question, especially in light of past concerns in other eras regarding procurement. Any group can run into difficulties if the process isn't absolutely clear and transparent. I can assure you it is. The Auditor General will be looking at the process. I would invite any of the members here to look at it. You're right: Smith & Wesson, as a matter of fact, is one of the firearms that to this point is receiving a high degree of favour. I don't know if they're going to wind up with the eventual contract.
I can assure you, Mr. Chairman, it will be clear and transparent and open to the view of this committee and anybody else who wants to see it.
