Mr. Speaker, the requirements defined by the Royal Canadian Air Force will be met by Sikorsky. The third-party expert that we hired to engage in this contract has confirmed the viability of the project under a new governance structure and a phased delivery of the maritime helicopters. Hitachi Consulting will continue to oversee aspects of the implementation plan, ensuring that delivery times remain as promised for the RCAF. This is good news for Canada and good news for our men and women in uniform.
