When we received the requests to audit the investing in Canada plan and the COVID-19 response, other audits were under way, so we had to postpone a few. Instead of tabling them in 2020, we will be tabling them in 2021.
In addition, as you pointed out, we had to cancel or, rather, postpone certain audits to a future date to be determined. That's why we initiated a hiring process on Friday; we are trying to build our audit capacity. Obviously, that decision is not without risk, but it helps us ensure that we have the staff and auditors necessary to undertake audits other than those stemming from the motions in question.
With respect to Phoenix, we conducted a performance audit, which we follow up on yearly through our audit of the Government of Canada's consolidated financial statements. We endeavour to include our findings and the error rate in a report we submit as soon as the Public Accounts of Canada are tabled in the House of Commons. As part of the report, we provide a commentary on all our financial audits, so it may contain a follow-up on Phoenix.
Rest assured that we will continue to address the pay of public servants every year in that financial audit, which is very important work to our office.
