The House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Accounts, tasked with review all reports by the Auditor General, has called on the government to make meaningful progress and address the structural problems identified by the Auditor General in the 2011 Status Report, Chapter 4: Programs for First Nations on Reserves. The Committee has tabled its own report, and recommended:
That, by 31 May 2012, Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation and Health Canada provide the Public Accounts Committee with a roadmap of specific actions, with timelines, that the departments intend to take to address the four structural impediments identified in Chapter 4 of the 2011 Status Report of the Auditor General of Canada.
