Mr. Speaker, we welcome the study by the parliamentary committee. We will listen to the concerns being expressed.
Centres across Canada are equipped with radio communication technology that has been regularly tested and is safe. The Canadian Coast Guard analyzed the recording of the garbled message presented to the committee on March 10. This transmission reflects some of the earliest problems experienced in 2013 with the new communications software.
The new technology is working. When something is old, we need to change it. This is the right choice for the new centre.
