Mr. Chair, that's a good question. It allows me to speak on one of the issues we've asked for in terms of regulatory changes.
It's not so much the power or the teeth associated with the recommendations. It's the right to compel documentation from departments. That is something we have been actively seeking for some time. We have examples of where we know that the documentation has not been provided to us upon request, so it takes many iterations to receive the required documentation.
In terms of your question specifically about recommendations, I will say that we're pleased to see that our recommendations are traditionally followed in almost all circumstances. On the systemic reviews, that is the benefit of the two-year follow-up. We follow up after two years to describe whether implementation has been complete on the recommendations we've made.
We will be submitting report cards on all 17 departments and agencies that we've reviewed. You'll be able to get a sense of whether they've complied with the recommendations in whole, in part or not at all.
