Mr. Speaker, yesterday the human resources minister had a very hard time trying to explain why she kept shovelling millions out the door even after she admitted that her department told her it was operating with virtually no administrative controls, or, in her own words, in the dark ages.
Now that she has had a day to get advice from her image consultant, perhaps she can try again.
Why, after learning of a $1 billion bungle, did the minister just reach for her chequebook?
