The first part of that question asks when we implemented these. When I went through my remarks, I said that the six aspects are all key parts of a best-practice, rigorous appointment process: what the guidelines for ministers are, what the publication is, what the selection and notification criteria are, how you manage vacancies, and those sorts of things. They've been implemented at different times over the last three years, because they've taken different amounts of work to take into effect.
The Office of the Auditor General responded, which I'll come back to in a minute. The audit was done over a period of time. It was done over a period of 33 months and reflects the whole period from January 2006 to September 2008. Through that period of time, and past it, we've been implementing the six changes I mentioned, and others.
A snapshot over an average of 33 months is not going to necessarily capture where we've ended up today. I'll come back to highlight those differences, Mr. Chair.
