Several times, notably in Chapter 1, you state that generally speaking, the expenditure management system, that is the reporting of certain expenditures or departmental spending authorization, does not take performance or results into account.
Of the 130 agencies or departments that have undergone performance audits, does it ever happen that measures are taken before an audit is done, with a view to justifying an existing, long-term program? Can you give me any examples of this? It makes a considerable difference.
