Mr. Speaker, the National Fighter Procurement Secretariat and the officials who are in charge of ensuring that the proper due diligence is done leading up to the decision to replace our CF-18s are doing this work. Their mandate is public. It is published on their website. At this point there has been no money spent on the acquisition of new aircraft. Until the secretariat has finished its seven-point plan, no money will be spent.
The KPMG report is obviously an independent validation of the Department of National Defence's cost estimates and the secretariat will release that as well.
