Yes, Mr. Chair. The reason I am raising this is that the President of the Treasury Board chose in his presentation to take three-quarters of his time to talk about his response to our estimates report. The estimates report recommended a number of changes, which we're grateful the government is doing, but there are a number of equally important recommendations, including the capacity of members of Parliament to actually analyze all that raw data.
The reason I am raising the question—my question is for the President of the Treasury Board—in lieu of that decision and in lieu of your openness now to providing the raw data, is to ask whether you are willing to revisit the possibility of enhancing the role of the Parliamentary Budget Officer and, in fact, not stand in his way to respond to our requests for detailed information and analysis.
