One of the main reasons is the size of the public accounts. We have over 2,500 pages, compared to the smaller reports from provinces. There is also bigger work for audit purposes. It's the biggest audit in the country. It also takes a bit longer for us to complete. We have a requirement to publish in multiple formats, and we have to ensure accessibility, which is not necessarily required across all provinces, for example. That's my understanding. These are the main reasons it takes longer to prepare.
There is also when they can table. Some provinces can table earlier, because they don't have to do it when the government is sitting. That's another difference.
