I understand what the previous questioner was saying, except for one thing: My understanding of this document is that, however vague, the individual ministry presents to Treasury Board, at the beginning of the budget process, what it intends to accomplish in the various activities within the ministry, and I presume they also provide some detail on how they intend to accomplish it, and where they think they will be as the year progresses, so that the Treasury Board has an opportunity at that point to question and disagree.
Je crois avoir saisi ce qu'a voulu dire le dernier intervenant, sauf sur un point: à ce que je comprends de ce document, plutôt vaguement, je l'avoue, le ministère soumet au Conseil du Trésor, au début du processus budgétaire, ce qu'il se propose d'accomplir dans ses divers secteurs d'activité.
