Under current Treasury Board rules, we have to include the office. Ever since the 2012 budget, we have had to include the reallocation of costs. We did our best and we funded an IM/IT project. That accounts for some $2.9 million and is included in the $7.4 million, which puts the real cost of internal services at $4.5 million currently. And that is equivalent to roughly 24% of the office's total budget.
As an agent of Parliament, we contacted the people at Treasury Board to tell them about our concerns. They are paying attention. We are going to make a greater effort to ensure that, the next time we bring the numbers to you, we will be applying new rules devised with our Treasury Board colleagues. For the time being, however, we are following Treasury Board's rules, but the numbers we're being given aren't entirely accurate.
