I'll continue along the same lines as my colleague, Mr. D'Amours, who asked a question regarding time periods, reports, and your follow-up. The Auditor General stated earlier that she wanted to see the results of quantitative studies.
Ms. Cartwright, you said that you had considered this issue. However, I did ask you a question about business cases. What data do you use in the studies that lead up to the annual reports that you table? I find it hard to believe that you are able to provide us with reports in the expected time period, given the data that departments have in order to follow up on their human resources programs. You stated that you took the necessary measures in order to give us these reports in time.
Could you expand on the means that you used in order to ensure that these data were relevant and justified?
For my part, I have not seen anything that resembled a business case analysis. I would like to know what quantitative data we can expect to see in the next annual report that you will table.
