Changes in responsibilities continued through the late 1960s. In 1969, as recommended by the Glassco Commission, the position of Comptroller of the Treasury was abolished and departments took responsibility for certifying and authorizing expenditures. The Comptroller's office became part of the Department of Supply and Services. This function remained in PWGSC [Public Works and Government Services Canada] as the Receiver General of Canada. In 1978 as part of the government's response to the Auditor General' s Report, a new Office of the Comptroller General was established. While similar in name to the former Comptroller of the Treasury the function was different. The Comptroller General reported to the Treasury Board on financial management program evaluation and internal audit in government departments. As part of this reorganization [in 1993, ] the Office of the Comptroller General of Canada which had existed as a distinct organization separate from the Treasury Board Secretariat since 1978 was amalgamated with the Secretariat and the title and responsibilities for both were delegated to a single individual –Secretary of the Treasury Board and Comptroller General of Canada. In June 2004, following the appointment of the new Comptroller General, a new Office of the Comptroller General( OCG) was established as a distinct organization in TBS [Treasury Board Secretariat]. Consistent with the focus on sound financial management in the OCG, other responsibilities that were under the former Comptrollership Branch now fall elsewhere in the Secretariat. 2, record 1, English, - Comptroller%20General%20of%20Canada

Les responsabilités ont continué de changer jusqu'à la fin des années 1960. En 1969, comme l'avait recommandé la Commission Glassco, le poste de contrôleur du Trésor a été aboli et les ministères ont assumé la responsabilité de la certification et de l'autorisation des dépenses. Le Bureau du contrôleur est devenu une partie du ministère des Approvisionnements et Services. Cette fonction est maintenant remplie par le receveur général du Canada qui fait partie de TPSGC [Travaux publics et Services gouvernementaux Canada]. En 1978, en partie en réponse au rapport du vérificateur général, le gouvernement établissait le nouveau Bureau du contrôleur général. Même s'il portait un titre presque identique à celui de l'ancien contrôleur du Trésor la fonction était différente. Le contrôleur général rendait compte au Conseil du Trésor de la gestion financière de l'évaluation de programmes et de la vérification interne dans les ministères. Par suite de cette réorganisation [en 1993,] le Bureau du contrôleur général du Canada, qui existait à titre d'entité indépendante par rapport au Secrétariat du Conseil du Trésor depuis 1978, a été fusionné à ce dernier et les titres et responsabilités de l'un et l'autre ont été délégués à une même personne, le secrétaire du Conseil du Trésor et contrôleur général du Canada. En juin 2004 par suite de la nomination du nouveau contrôleur général, le Bureau du contrôleur général (BCG) a été créé à titre d'organisation distincte à l'intérieur du SCT [Secrétariat du Conseil du Trésor]. Étant donné l'importance accordée à la saine gestion financière au sein du BCG d'autres responsabilités exercées par l'ancienne Direction de la fonction de contrôleur ont été transférées à d'autres secteurs du Secrétariat. 3, record 1, French, - contr%C3%B4leur%20g%C3%A9n%C3%A9ral%20du%20Canada

The outputs of the Office [of the Auditor General of Canada] are the various opinions, management letters, reports on audits and studies resulting from the audit process. The Office allocates net program costs to its outputs. The costs of these outputs are therefore referred to as "fully loaded costs". The allocation of the actual fully loaded costs for 1992-93 is found in Appendix II. 1, record 3, English, - fully%20loaded%20cost
