Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise today to address the detailed reports in the tabled report on the GNWT contracts over $5,000 in the 2012-2013 budget year and the response to my written questions received on February 25, 2014, by the Minister of Finance.

I have said on more than one occasion that we are dealing with an antiquated, outdated and ultimately unconstitutional negotiating and sole-source contracting policy with this government. It’s abundantly clear that the taxpayers are holding the bag in its shortfalls.

I have always said the devil is in the details. With that in mind, let’s examine...

Thank you, Madam Chair. Again, to the motion, I’m hoping that we can get some information before the end of next session here and before the next round of public accounts. Again, for the record, I do want to thank my colleagues. It was a good journey, preparing for today and with the motions. Thank you.
