The problem of data, which has plagued many other departments and has been a familiar refrain at this committee is, again, nothing new.
Your opening statement conveyed an impression to me that, again, in the face of another Auditor General's report, the third one in 16 years, your department was scrambling to get caught up on doing work that it had promised to do in 2003 and 2007.
Why was the data not complete and compiled if this is, again, a known problem? This isn't a question of having the resources to preserve but just one of actually tracking what properties exist and what properties require resources for preservation.
