Madam Chair, our role is to audit the management and administration of government programs. We don't do evaluations. We determine whether the departments or agencies have adopted measures to evaluate program effectiveness and efficiency. In this case, we indicated that there were not enough performance indicators to do that. But it's not our role to do that job. That's a policy matter, which is not our responsibility.
