This is great news, and I'll share with you why. You will recall that in the non-partisan work of this committee we ensured, when we talked about the “+”, that we added the identify factor—such as race, ethnicity, religion, age, mental and physical disability—in the performance audits. I think that's a huge step. I'm hopeful that through your learning and applying it to your own department, you're also going to be committed to using it more frequently in your performance audits.
I'll thus put the question to you, Ms. Hogan. Is that a commitment? I see a nod, but just to reiterate the good work of the committee and your commitment to this, will you go on the record today and say that indeed this will now become part of the process that you employ across your audits?
