Statement made on 28 September 2010 by Senator Rose-Marie Losier-Cool

Hon. Rose-Marie Losier-Cool:

Honourable senators, the Prime Minister has announced that a $540 million contribution would be made over three years to the Global Fund. We are aware of the confusion that existed when we provided aid to Haiti.

Can the Leader of the Government tell us what federal agency will administer these funds? How will the actual use of this $540 million be accounted for to parliamentarians?
