Through its audits and recommendations, Canada's Office of the Auditor General (OAG) has promoted financial probity and good governance for over a century. While OAG recommendations may have inherent value, their full value is realized only when implemented by government. By investigating implementation rates and the OAG's interaction with Parliament, this paper evaluates whether OAG performance and interactions with Parliament have changed over time.Sommaire : De par ses audits et ses recommandations, le Bureau du v erificateur g en eral (BVG) du Canada fait la promotion de la probit e financière et de la bonne gouvernance depuis plus d'un siècle. Alors que les recommandations du BVG peuvent avoir une valeur inh erente, elles ne prennent toute leur valeur qu' a travers leur mise en oeuvre par le gouvernement. En faisant des recherches sur les taux de mise en oeuvre des recommandations du BVG et l'interaction du BVG avec le Parlement, cet article evalue si la performance du BVG et ses interactions avec le Parlement ont chang e au fil du temps.
Through its audits and recommendations, Canada's Office of the Auditor General (OAG) has promoted financial probity and good governance for over a century. While the OAG's recommendations may possess an inherent value, their full value is realized only through their implementation by government. By investigating OAG recommendation implementation rates, and the OAG's interaction with Parliament, this thesis evaluates recent performance at the OAG.Two research questions are considered: first, has OAG performance changed since 1993; and second, have its interactions with Parliament and government changed over the same period?
