I would be delighted to. Indeed, I was wondering about asking the chair if I could make a comment on this.
My experience as deputy minister in three departments now points to a tendency across government that I think would be of broad interest to the public accounts committee. It is that frequently these faults that are exposed—rightly—in audits point to an inclination to do things rather than to plan, track and document things. As well, when you're dealing with finite resources, often putting in place the information systems and documentary systems is seen, or has been seen, as less inherently valuable than actually spending the money on the core purpose.
However, when you don't do that, what we have found over and over again is that you actually pay for it, sometimes through really bad AG reports, but also in an ability to know exactly what you're dealing with.
The proper planning and documentation actually does help manage the risk. Also, I think, as a general proposition, that is something we have been learning across government—painfully—and you can see how that lesson is driving our way forward in this particular case.
