The Comptrollership Modernization Office supports the Deputy Controller General, Richard J. Neville, and the Comptroller General,
Jim Judd. It is a small unit, whose mandate is to:
- Transfer ownership of the Report of the Independent Review Panel on
Modernization of Comptrollership in the Government of Canada from the Panel to every part of the Public Service.
- Provide support for the modernization efforts of organizations and individuals.
- Work with external parties - Parliament, professions, media and other potential allies to create the understanding - to
forge the alliances... to bring in reinforcements to help modernization to succeed.
- Work with other central agencies - and other parts of Treasury Board - to create meaningful incentives for excellence and
remove unnecessary barriers and burdens.
- Support 5 committees that will provide direction and stamina to the modernization effort - the sustaining mechanisms:
A Modernization Task Force of deputy ministers - to provide overall direction, to monitor
progress and to report to ministers
A Standards Advisory Board - a high level, mainly external, committee to
advise the government on its choice of standards and frameworks - the arbiters of excellence.
A Comptrollership Council of assistant deputy ministers - to provide internal
advice on standards and to promote sharing of experience and development of needed tools.
The Small Agencies Modernization Council - a representative group of senior
decision-makers from small agencies as well as a representative from the Comptrollership Modernization Directorate of TBS - to
provide advice and guidance on the implementation of modernization activities in the small agency community.
The Agency Heads Modernization Steering Committee - a representative group of deputy
heads of small agencies as well as the Associate Deputy Comptroller General - to provide strategic advice on the implementation of
modern comptrollership in small agencies; champion the initiative within the small agency community; and advise and make
recommendations to the Secretary of the Treasury Board on funding proposals or other aspects of modern comptrollership affecting
small agencies.
- Movement on standards and frameworks--to begin to make information truly useful and reduce the amount of time departments
spend "feeding the central machine", filling out templates and following detailed rules.
Throughout this process, we are committed to:
- Communicating, and helping you communicate what modern comptrollership means and how it benefits
- Building capacity and proficiency--including the ability:
- to deliver modern comptrollership government-wide and
- to provide top class advice and support to departments.
