Mr. Chairman, we do not have the time to discuss my concerns and proposals regarding ACANs. The one little point I have on ACANs is that when there is a complaint or a grievance filed it goes back to the person who originally decided that it was uncompetitive bid but we will fix that later.
Because we have heard so much about these verbal contracts and commitments, could we have the minister's assurance that he has issued a directive that it will never be tolerated again by any civil servant that verbal commitments on behalf of the Government of Canada will be allowed?
