Okay, thank you very much for those figures. I just wanted to confirm those.
I'll follow up on a similar line of questioning as my colleague, Mr. Schmale.
A number of Auditor General reports, particularly with recommendations brought forward in six audits from 2015 to 2022, have found that despite an 84% increase in spending, the department was unable to make satisfactory progress over half of the time in addressing the recommendations brought forward.
I heard your comments earlier about the need for funding, and I appreciate your sharing that. Given the stark numbers that we see here—missing the mark half of the time despite an 84% increase in funding—I'd like to know, Minister, if you agree that this is problematic and needs to be addressed within the department.
