Yes, Mr. Chair. I thank Ms. Green for her comments. Certainly, this is a very important area of oversight and accountability that is performed by parliamentary committees. The standing committee had an opportunity to meet with public accounts committees from across Canada at this year's annual conference. Much was learned, in particular the amount of work that these committees do to hold government accountable and understand how money is being spent. Of course, we found that our financial documents could have their readability improved in the interest of openness and transparency, which of course, is a priority for this government. The standing committee has made that recommendation.

We look forward to working with the Department of Finance to help move that along. In particular, making it clear where the government's fiscal responsibility policy fits into the public accounts is a very serious priority for the committee. We look forward, again, to continuing that work and creating documents that can be used by both the public and MLAs without the assistance of the Auditor General of Canada. Thank you.
