Last week, National Post reported that a parliamentary battle is brewing between Hogan and the House of Commons because she has so far refused to comply with a June order to hand over all documents relating to her audit of SDTC.
The RCMP also wrote a letter to the committee over the summer expressing its discomfort with the order, which ordered the law clerk to hand over all the government’s documents on SDTC to the national police force.
In the article, retired senior parliamentary counsel Stephen Chaplin argued that the order likely abused Parliament’s powers.
During Tuesday’s hearing, Khalid read portions of the article into the record while arguing that the June motion adopted by opposition parties violated both the auditor general and RCMP’s independence.
Sounds like this IS an illegal fishing expedition by PP and his hoard of duplicitous underlings.
