Madam Speaker, I am not entirely sure how to respond. I do not know the details of how the networks are set up, but a properly run IT system will provide the appropriate firewalls within their systems to prevent data from going where it is not supposed to go. That is the whole purpose of having a high-security system. If security is the issue, then we need to address that issue properly, but Shared Services has an obligation to provide every department with the properly protected systems they need.

Madame la Présidente, je ne sais pas exactement ce que je devrais répondre. Je ne connais pas les réseaux concernés en détail, mais un système informatique bien géré est muni de coupe-feu qui empêchent les données de se retrouver là où elles ne le devraient pas. C'est pour cette raison que les systèmes sont équipés de dispositifs de haute sécurité. S'il y a un problème de sécurité, nous devons le régler, mais Services partagés a l'obligation de fournir aux ministères et aux organismes fédéraux les systèmes adéquatement protégés dont ils ont besoin.
