When we do our peer review of the various audits that have been done, we will be looking to see, for example, that the evidence that has been collected supports the findings, the conclusions, and the recommendations of that particular audit. If that evidence is not available, or if for some reason there have been difficulties collecting it from the department, then we would certainly discuss it with the Office of the Auditor General, but that is not our primary task. We are looking to see that, by auditing standards, the work that has been done supports the reports that have been tabled in this Parliament.
