Public Accounts committee I don't need the concurrence. I would need to make sure that I inform, to make sure that's it.... If I think there's an issue, I would.... I mean, we're talking about a hypothesis here, but I would definitely—

Public Accounts committee Okay. I will answer this differently. I apologize. What would I do in a situation like that? I'd sit down with the staff and we'd go through it. I would need justification and explanation. If there's a good reason why we should go ahead, and I'm comfortable with it, that's ho

Public Accounts committee For the same project...? No. But if it's okay to split it into.... You're asking me a loaded question there. For the same project, no.

Public Accounts committee I'm convinced these people feel they haven't misled anyone. Now we have a lot of information on projects. I don't know exactly what Mr. Goulet considers essential or important. That wasn't part of the discussion. These people would probably tell you that they never intended to p

Public Accounts committee I will point to a couple of other points of failure, I believe. One of the things that I think was really missed was that there was no holistic view of this implementation from one end to the other, including the HR processes. When decisions were made, they felt that they had th

Public Accounts committee The first delay was based on recommendations from discussion with IBM, others, and the departments. There was a window to be able to delay to February and April. My understanding is that when the decision was made to launch in February, there were discussions with IBM. They agree
