Mr. Speaker, the national shipbuilding procurement strategy uses third-party experts to review the program and to provide advice regarding program costs and the decisions that go with them.
The Auditor General himself recognized that we have strong governance in place to manage the cost and capability trade-offs.
He also found that we are managing the acquisition of military ships in a timely, affordable, efficient and transparent manner that will support the shipbuilding industry for years to come.
We agree with the Auditor General. So should the NDP.
