Thank you, Mr. Matthews.
The other important and interesting part of the departmental performance report is the performance indicators. There's one thing about controlling expenses, but you're also obligated to meet certain targets. One of the refreshing things I saw in this year's departmental performance report for the Treasury Board Secretariat is that you missed some targets. To me this is refreshing in the sense that I've looked at some of these reports in the past—not just Treasury Board, but other departments—and they seem to hit 100% of the targets, which suggests the targets weren't aggressive enough in some cases.
I notice there was a target that was missed in this case, just one. Maybe you could comment on it. It was under the area of program 1.3: expenditure management, which is on page 25 of the version of the DPR that I have. It says, “Per cent of organizations whose year-end expenditures are within the targeted range of planned expenditures”, and there's a targeted range of 15%. You had 80% of organizations that would hit those targets, but only 70% did. I'm wondering, what are the consequences when organizations don't hit their expenditure targets? Does this affect variable compensation for deputy ministers or associate deputy ministers, and so on?
