Madam Chair, I do not consider this to be offloading onto deputy ministers. This is what deputy ministers do on a regular basis. This is part of what we are mandated to do. This is part of our responsibilities. It's part of our responsibilities under the Financial Administration Act to manage our resources effectively. This is not offloading on us. This is part of our job.
On April 12th, 2010. See this statement in context.
