I appreciate the question, and I apologize if I am using acronyms randomly or too frequently.
The Privy Council Office is, effectively, the department for the Prime Minister. Our responsibilities are to support the cabinet decision-making process that supports our system of government. There are various parts of the Privy Council Office, of course, that are aligned with supporting the whole variety of cabinet decision-making processes.
I won't go into those details, but, as you've mentioned, our role is to be a non-partisan, professional public service. We are able to provide advice impartially and based on principles of good governance to the government of the day. We serve each government as it comes into office. We provide continuity in terms of the structure and operations of government. We provide advice and support to the government in managing, and achieving the priorities it brings to governing as duly elected representatives of Canadians.
Our role is very important in that context, in terms of providing the advice and support that will enable decision-making systems of government to function effectively.
