We note in here that there were some issues with the governance structure. In April 2009 the Treasury Board had issued a policy essentially on financial management, but it was known quite a bit before that.
There were two major things in that. One was that there should be a chief financial officer named. There was no one actually designated as such. As well, the deputy minister is the accounting officer, yet we found that much of the responsibility was with the vice-chief of the defence staff, and being part of the military, his reporting relationship, even though it shows that he's to report to both, would be more on the military side. It was to rebalance things, to be blunt, and to have more civilian oversight and responsibility on financial management.
