Mr. Andrew Ferguson at the Environment and Sustainable Development Committee

Under the legislation, within one year of tabling of the final federal strategy, each of the 28 individual departments subject to the act is to table a strategy that contributes to the federal one.

So the answer is that somewhere around June or July 2011 we should see 28 individual departmental strategies. Then our mandate following that is to assess those and report to Parliament on whether they are contributing to the federal one.
