In terms of making sure people are well informed about our work, that's all about us having strategies to make sure our reports are accessible.
I think you will have seen that we have started to make some changes in our performance audit reports, for example. We have a document that we call “Audit at a Glance”, which is to help people understand the audits. Also, the format of those reports has changed. We are focusing more on what we found in the performance audits and trying to make that clearer to the reader. We have an exercise under way now to improve our Internet site so that people can have better access to the information we're providing.
I think it's all about trying to make the audits more accessible and trying to make them information dense, so you get to the main messages in the audit very quickly.
We also have a new product that we're working on. We haven't finished it yet and it's not something we're ready to roll out. We're looking at a report that helps people understand the work we do on financial statement audits because it's not something that people know us for.
As I said to the opening question, about 50% of our work is doing financial statement audits and the other 50% is doing performance audits. Of course, everybody knows us for the performance audits because we have hearings on them and they get that type of attention. The other half of the effort in the office is all around the audits we do on financial statements, whether it be of the Government of Canada, or of various crown corporations and agencies.
We don't have a way yet of communicating to Parliament exactly.... Other than an opinion on a set of financial statements, we don't have a way of communicating results of that practice as a whole. We're trying to come up with a way of doing that, so that we can better inform Parliament about that 50% of our effort.
