That's a good question, Mr. Chairman. I would like to go back in time a little bit to answer it.
Over the years, we ended up with about 120 programs on energy security, energy effectiveness and climate change. Over the last year, and under the chairmanship of Treasury Board, the former government reviewed these programs, and it was based on that report that the new government took decisions.
I don't have the exact numbers, but I believe that 97 of the 120 programs were extended by one year to allow the government to establish its policy on climate change and energy. We got rid of some of these programs because they had either reached their objectives or because they were not as effective as they should have been.
However, of the 120 programs, about 95 were extended by one year, which will give the government time to develop a policy and to decide which programs should be abolished, extended, increased or reduced.
