Well, I don't see why a parliamentary committee in Canada can't take note of the estimates and write a substantive report. So the report is not on the estimates, but it's taking note of them and writing a report on some issue that the committee wants to do a report on. I see no reason, since the estimates cover almost everything that government does, why you couldn't have wonderful reports coming out of committees that way.
