A motion tabled by Conservative MP Garnett Genuis to request that the auditor general investigate the Liberal government’s awarding of contracts to multi-national consulting firm McKinsey unanimously passed in the House of Commons on Feb. 7.

The motion called for the House to accept a report of the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates (OGGO), which is studying the federal government consulting contracts awarded to McKinsey & Company.
