Certainly. Thank you for the question.
IT is an important part of our department, and indeed we were before a parliamentary committee in the recent past on the issue of aging IT infrastructure.
A lot of IT funding is project-related. Project-related funding has its own lifeline. The two major IT projects under way within the department right now are the transformation of pension administration and the transformation of pay initiative. These are both major undertakings. One initiative involves a $246 million investment by the government. That's on the pension side. On the pay side there will be an investment of $298 million. That will take place over many years, and we're at the very start of that as well.
Across the department, we are now putting together an investment plan in response to the Auditor General's report so that we can provide assurance that we're putting our investment on the priorities of the department. We will then be ensuring that we have a department-wide plan, which is what the Auditor General's report was attesting to.
