Social Services Committee — Department of Health, plus there was a $2 million transition fund that was established in last year's budget for the department. So those two amounts combined make up what the 2009-2010 Budget column would represent. The revised estimates as well came from Health, and based on expenditures up to the point in time that we were required to submit the revised numbers. MS MICHAEL: Okay. I would imagine, and I do not know, and I do not know if you know, minister: Would Health have done that every year that you actually would have been able to find documentation? MS BURKE: (Inaudible). MS MICHAEL: No, you would not have. So, I guess that is what I am asking. When Health did this, did they come up with a document that they gave to you in the new ministry in order to come up with these two columns? MR. GRANDY: This would be the document. We do not have a line by line detail of those budget numbers, no. MS MICHAEL: So Health just gave you asked for figures and they gave you these figures. MR. GRANDY: They were produced in this Estimates document, that is right. MS MICHAEL: I see. Okay, thank you very much. I just wanted to ask that up front to sort of get a sense of where the figures came from. If we wanted to find out if there is more detail, we would have to go to Health and ask them if they had a document. Okay, thank you so much. Then I will just start with the line items. Obviously, there is not a lot I can question because of the fact of the new ministry, but when we come over to section 2.1.01 - and this is where it is curious for me - under 2.1.01, line 01., Salaries, the budgeted line item says $1,110,700. We have a difference between the budget and the revision. Not a huge one, but there is a difference between the Budget and the revision, $358,400. Then we have the new estimate, which is basically the same. Why the difference between the budgeted and the revision? Do you have that information? It is 2.1.01. MS BURKE: So you are asking w2010-04-21—

Public Accounts Committee — Department of Industry, Trade and Technology, the Canada-Newfoundland Strategic Investment and Industrial Development Cooperation Agreement, again an issue that the Auditor General looked at in her 1996 annual report. I guess we will proceed directly to the questioning, and I will certainly ask members to my immediate right. Mr. Whelan, would you like to start? MR. WHELAN: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Before we really get into any line of questioning, there are a couple of things I noticed in the report that sort of left me hanging to some degree. I suppose before we go any further, unless we get it cleared up, it sort of probably takes away some credibility from the department or the Auditor General's office. I notice here the Auditor General mentioned on page 3 of our book: "The Committee did not comply with the Agreement in the following respects: The Agreement was not properly administered as funding of programs was not adequately controlled, managed or monitored in accordance with Agreement requirements. For example...," and she lists a number of examples. The response from the department was: "Information to substantiate this was provided to your auditors and for some reason it continues to be ignored." I would like to have that cleared up. It goes on, on page 4: "In order to determine whether the program achieved what it was expected to achieve, the Agreement required that a plan for evaluating the programs and program elements be developed and also that an evaluation framework be developed by December 1992. As at 31 March 1996, no comprehensive evaluation of the Agreement had been planned and no data had been accumulated which could be used to measure the Agreement's impact." The response from the department, on page 5, was that: "There was an evaluation framework prepared by the management committee in 1993 and this was given to your staff. It is the committee's view that compliance with the Agreement has been achieved and that suffi1997-11-06—

Government Services Committee — Department of Municipal and Provincial Affairs and the Newfoundland and Labrador Housing Corporation. The procedure has not changed. The minister will have fifteen minutes for opening remarks and someone on this side, Jack or Bob, will have fifteen minutes to respond. I want to introduce to you the Committee members: the Vice-Chair, Mr. Jack Byrne; Robert French, the MHA for Conception Bay South; Gerald Smith, the MHA for Port au Port; and Anthony Sparrow, the MHA for Placentia & St. Mary's. We have one member who has not yet arrived but I understand he is in the building and will be along shortly. We will change up every ten minutes or so, if it is agreeable. Minister, I want to welcome here tonight, you and your staff, and you may begin by introducing your staff, then continue with your fifteen-minute statement if you so wish. MR. A. REID: On my right, Mr. Chairman, representing Newfoundland and Labrador Housing, is Clyde Granter, the new CEO, and Ed Heath is Vice-President of Finance. Sitting here on my left is Bob Noseworthy, the new Deputy Minister; Ramona Cole, the brand new Assistant Deputy Minister; Felix Croke, sitting behind me, is the Manager of Financial Operations; and John Moore is the Director of Local Government Policy. If you do not mind, Mr. Chairman, I am going to read my opening remarks and most of the remarks, I think, in the opening statement refer to my Municipal and Provincial Affairs Department, but I will be making some comments about Housing. And to be quite honest about it, if you would prefer, I would prefer to do Housing first and let them go, if the Committee is satisfied with that rather than - because I think most of the questions will probably come from Municipal Affairs, so why keep them around for two or three or four hours, the length of time we will be here tonight. — 30 April 19971997-04-30—

Public Accounts Committee — Department of Advanced Education and Skills in the College of the North Atlantic. My name is Jim Bennett, and I am the Chair. I am going to ask each individual if they would identify themselves. This hearing is being recorded and there will be a transcript provided. So it is important for everybody, whenever they speak the members all know this because we appear regularly, but it is important to identify yourself when you answer a question. We will have people introduce themselves, then we swear witnesses, and then we will proceed from there. Mr. Brazil. MR. BRAZIL: David Brazil, Vice-Chair. I want to note, too, if you could note the little light in front of you. When you identify who you are, wait for the light to come on and then identify who you are, for the recording process. MR. K.
