Joël Lightbound on Public Services and Procurement

Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the Auditor General for her report and highlight that we have acted on previous reports by the Auditor General and also on internal audits to increase transparency, increase data collection and increase oversight. I will also note that last year, my department terminated all contracts with GC Strategies and revoked its security clearance, and as of last week, the office of supplier integrity has rendered a decision making GC Strategies ineligible for contracts for seven years.
