Thank you.
Madam Minister, now I'm going to talk about the Office of the Auditor General.
In its 2005 Status Report, the Office of the Auditor General stated that it had examined the management of CIDA's grants and contributions programs. The percentage of the transfer payments, which are considered as grants, has now reached the 60% level.
Are you concerned by the fact that such a high, and constantly rising, percentage of transfer payments is being made by CIDA in the form of grants rather than contributions? We know perfectly well that CIDA can't have any control over those grants.
