Well, Madam Chair, I am quite happy to talk about vendor performance management. So one of the many things that has proceeded under and in response to the procurement review was a move for vendor performance management. I certainly don't want to suggest that the Government of the Northwest Territories doesn't play a role in managing its own contracts; however, up and to the time of the procurement review, there wasn't anything in the contracts to say that they would be monitored and then there was no mechanism by which to enforce, say, BIP policies that businesses were using to bid on contracts.
So with the introduction of BIP vendor performance management, initially a couple of years ago, which introduced the monitoring component and started to change our contracts so that contractors would know that they were being monitored. The last piece of the puzzle, if you will, was an app to create and establish enforcement mechanisms which would be up to and including the ability to hold back the holdback amounts if, in fact, companies were not meeting the obligations that they had purported to be meeting when they initially made their contracted bids. So I do certainly agree with that concern. Our BIP program and procurement in general will only be as strong as our ability to monitor it and enforce it. Those tools are now in place. It has taken some time. So I acknowledge that. But those tools are there now. Thank you.
