I'm sorry, Mr. Holder, but you are probably too new to committees. If you sat on public accounts, in the public accounts committee the chair asks the questions in between everybody else's questions. And we're being courteous to each other.
I listened intently. I went down to the final point until I wrapped up, and I wrapped up because you had not asked the relevant questions. It is important for the chair to listen to everyone and see what is missing, and when the chair realizes what is missing, the chair has to summarize that this is what she heard, the frustration from everyone.
The question I needed to pose to Mr. Page was why it was difficult to track the money. He has 3,000 projects. How many departments are responsible and what is the confusion, so that when next time we ask a budget officer to come before us, we need to know the flow of process. It is important for us to know, because otherwise we are asking questions that sometimes the officer cannot answer. If we understand the flow of process, we will be able to ask the questions.
Mr. Page, would you mind answering? What is the number of departments that are involved in those 3,000 projects? Do you have any idea?
