Commons public accounts committee votes 5–4 against declaring recovery of $34 million in SDTC payouts “in the public interest”
At its 22 October meeting the House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Accounts negatived a Conservative motion to report that recovering the $34 million paid to ineligible projects by Sustainable Development Technology Canada is in the public interest. The five Liberal members voted no; three Conservatives and the Bloc member voted yes. The government told MPs last month it would not seek repayment.
