I couldn't agree with you more. I do believe more frequent reporting leads to a higher level of accountability and transparency.
You state in your report that you feel more optimistic about the federal government's financial reporting in the future. This is a two-part question.
Why would you state that you feel more optimistic about the federal government's financial reporting in the future? Maybe it is because it might be a different government. Secondly, did the most recent estimates that were tabled reflect this optimism, or does the government continue to fail on many accounts, would you say?
