Responding to questions on the Lagueux report, the Minister of National Defence claimed that the report in no way implicates any of the senior officials in the department. Yet two directors general were reprimanded as a result of it. One subsequently committed suicide. The other was promoted one category and still occupies that same position. In fact, access to information reveals that two years after the Lagueux report this individual was still regularly approving contracts for amounts in excess of her authorization.
Will the minister explain these inconsistencies in his response, especially since he claimed that the problems and the individuals concerned had been dealt with?
