I think we've already mentioned that we have the same problem in terms of estimates oversight. A parliamentary budget officer position exists. In our quarterly reports, we monitor the government's budgetary expenditures.
I'm going to repeat what I said earlier. We, too, have trouble obtaining the necessary data to accurately assess all of the government's measures. We indicate that every three months when we review direct program spending in the absence of all the necessary data. Those issues date back to 2012. Nevertheless, committees do take their jobs seriously, and I hope they are using our data.
I hope that the Auditor General at least mentioned in his report that the parliamentary budget officer is also making those efforts to help parliamentarians, albeit without ideal results, so they can do their jobs as lawmakers and overseers of public money.
