It seems to me that any action whatsoever that might be undertaken by Parliament that might draw the Auditor General into the political fray would destroy that credibility and would damage the independence of the institution, one that I have indicated and I think all colleagues would agree is of great, great importance.
Il me semble que toute initiative du Parlement qui risque d'entraîner le vérificateur général dans l'arène politique entacherait sa crédibilité et compromettrait l'indépendance de sa fonction. Or, sa fonction est de la plus haute importance, je suis sûr que tous mes collègues en conviendront.
