Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will be voting in favour of the motion.
Mr. Speaker, the Premier points out the furthermore that all employees and officials actively cooperate. I think that raises an interesting point, not to suggest that this government has not or would not fully cooperate with the Auditor General. However, Mr. Speaker, this is an unusual project where much of the activity was undertaken by a third party, the Deh Cho Bridge Corporation. That information and that documentation are things that were not always readily available to this government perhaps, but certainly not to this side of the House.
I think it is important that if we are going to be looking at this fully, the folks at the Deh Cho Bridge Corporation would also be fully participating and cooperating in their compliance in handing over of information so this can be assessed. It has been an unusual practice of this government. It is really the first time that we have undertaken a major project through this process. It is important, I think, that we fully evaluate what the positives and what some of the weaknesses were of going about a project of this nature through this manner. I think that is the kind of information that this will bring out.
For me it is not about the government isn’t withholding something and it is a big secret and we have to get the Auditor General to go and rip it out of their hands. To me it is not about that at all. It is about looking at this as a large, major capital project which we undertook to procure in an unusual manner that we have never done before. It is basically a debrief that is a post mortem on the process. I will be supporting the motion. Thank you.
