Government Operations committee  Maybe I can jump in, Mr. Chair. As the CFO for PSPC, I can say that the $15 billion is not something that we have in our budget. It would be more appropriate to send that question to DND.

Government Operations committee  I believe that Centre Block is supposed to be done in 2030-2031. The handover of Centre Block is going to be a year later. There is a transition period, with all of the moving in and everything that happens during that interim window.
