Anne McLellan Knew of Gun Registry Cost Overruns

In May, a report was issued by the Public Accounts Committee censuring former Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Anne McLellan, faulting her for ignoring the advice of her senior bureaucrats and not reporting the cost overruns of the troubled gun registry. Instead of going to Parliament to ask for additional funds, the overrun was moved forward in time, against accepted accounting practices. The Liberal Party members of the committee dissented, claiming that Anne McLellan was given bad advice by her staff. (There is) a memo that shows exactly what advice was given directly to the minister from the commissioner of firearms, and it suggests that Anne McLellan was told the whole truth, and was given accurate advice, including about the accounting rules that would need to be followed.
