Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you, everyone, for being here today.
We're continuing, as you know, our review of the new process that we see under estimates reform. I just have a few questions and, Mr. Pagan, I'm going to start with you, probably not surprisingly.
Just to get some context, I'm just trying to find a quote here. In February 2018, the chair of the Standing Senate Committee on National Finance told Treasury Board officials, “purpose-based votes are clearer, and we would like you to expand the project”. That, to me, seems like an endorsement, but I think some prescriptive measures are also indicated in that statement. Has TBS taken any steps following the chair's comments on that at that Senate committee in February? If so, what are those steps?
