Mr. Speaker, the problem of Liberal mismanagement is nothing new. In fact, back in April 1999 an audit by HRDC was conducted on the funds for the TAGS program. This report highlighted the problems with HRDC grants and contributions. The response to this report was that HRDC was already taking steps to ensure better monitoring.
Why is it that six months later the minister of HRDC said she knew nothing about the mismanagement of taxpayers' dollars?
