Madam Chairman, I take it then from the minister's remarks that he has no idea what he spends on this program and it has nothing to do with operational effectiveness. That really helps to build confidence in the minister. On page 2 of the estimates he says that the government has enhanced investment in education, training and professional development and so on. When did the army last hold a full brigade sized exercise?
In the House of Commons on May 7th, 2002. See this statement in context.
