Mr. Ferguson, you explained that the departments have to change their accounting methods. If the three methods were standardized, would that not be a way of simplifying the process? Could something be presented on that subject? We have some concerns. We were told just now that the transition could be lengthy, costly, tedious and complex. We were told that Ontario changed its three methods and it took nine years.
In light of your information, would standardizing the accounting approach definitely lighten employees' workload?
