Mr. Speaker, I do not know about the appropriateness of the question in view of the fact that I believe it is the subject matter of the opposition day today.
Let me repeat what I have said on three separate occasions. The Government of Canada has entered into negotiations concerning termination costs for two contractors with the Government of Canada. We were successful with one. We have held very long, very exhaustive negotiations with E. H. Industries on termination costs. We have reached agreement. I hope to be able to provide the details in due course, but because of certain confidentiality rules I am not at liberty to provide that today.
I said before on the floor of the House of Commons and I have said it outside of the House that this particular matter has been resolved. When the details become available to all members, they will realize that the Government of Canada has achieved its particular objective.
