Thank you very much, Chair.
Thank you, Auditor General, and your team.
I'd like to continue by moving on to some of the other reports. I think it's important in this initial meeting that we get a sense of where the problems are and to what degree they're present. The two reports that concern me right now are numbers 4 and 5.
Concerning the oral health problems for first nations, you made the remark that—and data collection and measurement have been an overriding theme in our work—the department couldn't tell you why fewer children were being reached. There was some success in the prevention of problems with oral health in children, but there were fewer children enrolled in the program, fewer services were provided under the initiative than in previous years, and Health Canada does not know why. I'd like to hear your remarks on that, or remarks from a member of your team.
I'd like to go to report 5 as well. If there was ever a case for gender-based analysis plus, this is certainly the poster child for that policy tool, and I'd like to hear some remarks about how we can use GBA+ to better accomplish what we're putting money out to do.
