NEWS RELEASE
Rehabilitation continues on Canada’s Parliament
Ottawa, May 31, 2024 -
PARLIAMENT HILL – The Auditor General of Canada found in a 2023 performance audit that, Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) effectively managed the early phases of the Centre Block Rehabilitation Program to rehabilitate Parliament’s Centre Block and build the new Parliament Welcome Centre. Key findings of the audit include:- During several project phases, PSPC had thus far effectively managed the scope, schedule, and costs and kept the program on schedule and within costs
- One way it achieved this was by using flexible management approaches.
- PSPC collaborated with many stakeholders to balance sustainability, heritage, accessibility, and inclusivity elements.
- However, the governance of the rehabilitation program remained fragmented, resulting in delays in obtaining key decisions on some user requirements from the parliamentary partners.
