Deputy ministers at Global Affairs Canada are being called to testify before a parliamentary committee following an internal audit that revealed 26 per cent of the department's contracts did not comply with the Financial Administration Act. The House Government Operations and Estimates Committee adopted the Conservative MP Kelly Block's motion on May 6 calling deputy ministers to appear, as well as the auditors responsible for the internal report.

“We have seen across this NDP-Liberal government so many examples of outrageous contracting irregularities, and taxpayers are now coming to see the pattern through which their money is wasted,” Genuis said. “There is so much in the way of savings to be realized and value to be created by improving the system.' Liberal MP and committee vice-chair Majid Jowhari supported the motion calling on deputy ministers to answer questions in response to the internal report.
