"We welcome the Auditor General''s reports and agree with all of the recommendations. These reports, which cover various periods between January 2006 and September 2016, highlight key areas for improvement, a number of which we had identified and are already being addressed.

Already, our new Policy on Results, which came into effect in July 2016, strengthens the Government''s guidance on the measurement and evaluation of government programs. We have put a new focus on the importance of good data that directly measures the results we deliver to Canadians.

We are modernizing how the government operates, in order to reflect the values and expectations of Canadians and deliver on the service they deserve."
