Mr. Speaker, as part of our continuous efforts to become more efficient and more effective, Public Works has achieved the strategic review target set out by Treasury Board. This was achieved with the oversight of former national security adviser, Margaret Bloodworth, and the former auditor general, Denis Desautels.
These savings will provide the room to continue paying down debt and investing in the priorities of Canadians, including lowering taxes for families.
Retirement and attrition will provide the public service with the flexibility to manage these decisions without substantial job losses.
