The management accounting services provides financial services procedures and training essential to financial management administration of the government. That is spelled out on line one of the narrative. We are also aware, through our other committees some departments, the Department of Health to be specific, have all kinds of concerns and problems with their financial management systems. How is this group, in the Department of Finance, related in terms of the services they provide to other departments?

Mr. Chairman, this group works mostly with boards and agencies. I will give you some idea of the kind of things they do. They do systems support for the Housing Corporation and the Keewatin, Kitikmeot, Inuvik and Mackenzie regional boards of health. Those people use a clone of our main financial system. They provide services to other public agencies and assistance in the use of other types of computerized financial systems. They provide assistance to all FAA scheduled agencies in terms of application of government financial legislation polices, directives, etcetera, to credit and collections and banking and investment. With regard to assistance in compliance with legislative requirements for public agencies and so on, I could provide the list to the committee. It does go on for one page, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I believe this activity for management accounting services also relates to the tax administration, especially when it comes to maintaining the payroll system. I wonder if Mr. Koe wants to defer this page as well? Thank you.

Mr. Chairman, under management accounting services, last year our standing committee made a recommendation to Finance to delete the boards and agencies team set up in this activity. I understand that this team still exists within the department. Could I get the Minister to comment on the boards and agencies team that is still in existence?

Mr. Chairman, that is correct. After reviewing the documentation that was placed before the then, Standing Committee on Finance chairman, Mr. Todd, I was advised that the Standing Committee on Finance was satisfied that these people were justified. Consequently, we have not removed them from the budget. We consider them key in working with those health boards. I thought this problem had been resolved. Mr. Chairman.
