The Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business (PSIB) has come under scrutiny for not auditing most of the contracts it awarded last year.

Concerns were raised after it was discovered that Dalian Enterprises, which received $7.9 million through the program, was later removed from the Indigenous Business Directory (IBD), among other businesses.
