Thank you so much, Mr. Chair.
I want to add my sincere and warm congratulations to you, Ms. Hogan, on your appointment to be our new Auditor General. It's an important role. Thank you for your service to our nation.
I want to start by correcting something on the record. My colleague Mr. Julian indicated that the only time there's ever an increase in the Auditor General's budget is when there is a minority government. I think as you just stated, and as the interim Auditor General indicated the last time you met with us, in 2017 there was actually an increase of just over $7 million. In budget 2018 our government committed to investing more than $41 million in additional dollars. I know there's more to come, but I wanted to make sure it was on the record that dollars did flow, and in a majority government, in our last Parliament.
My first question for you is with regard to your point 11. You mentioned that our committee's motion calls on the Auditor General to “audit all federal programs associated with Canada's COVID-19 response”. Is that the intention? While there is a motion, would it be typical that the Auditor General would audit 100% of the programs or is it the intention that you will do 50%, 70%, 75%?
If you could clarify that, it would be appreciated.
