Yes, 17,000 reports were coming in. We've reduced that by over 50% in one year. I mean, why a thousand reports? We don't need a thousand reports.
I mentioned HR reporting. That's down by 85%. As I said, I can't emphasize enough how out of control, I would say, the reporting was. People ask who reads the reports. I would have to say that I agree; I don't know.
On the work that was done, if we think we can get the information through other sources--for the most part, we think we can--we don't need a report. So we're down 85% in the overall requirements through HR reporting, which is probably one of the most significant areas.
Financial reporting is an area as well in which I think we could make further progress. But again, a lot of it is for public accounts. A lot of it is for main estimates. A lot of it is just the business of government, reporting through Parliament to Canadians. I'm not certain that we could make a lot of progress there.
But there are other areas. In such areas as procurement and contracting, I think we can go even further. Where we've set the targets over the past year or year and a half, we've hit those targets. Now we will put in another set of targets coming up for the next year as part of our overall action plan.
That's how we've been going at it. To me, it's a practical way of going at it. It's doing it step by step.
