I am not sure that you fully answered the question I posed. The Office of the Auditor General has carried out an audit, but had you not already done some kind of internal audit? It makes me wonder. This is after all a 23-year old agreement. The Auditor General has called you to order, and you admit having made mistakes. You are planning to implement a better process with future agreements, but is that enough to regain your credibility in the eyes of the first nations who will sign them?
