And I can say with pride that we are meeting that commitment. Each year, this government tables business plans for each ministry, reporting back on how we manage tax dollars.
All business plans are available through the internet.
No other government has done as much in this regard, Mr. Speaker, and we plan to do even better. Taxpayers have the right to know if their hard earned dollars are being spent wisely by municipalities, hospitals, colleges and universities, school boards and agencies. Mr. Speaker, this drive for transparency is a cornerstone of our Throne Speech. Reforms are needed to ensure all public sector institutions are accountable to the people of Ontario. That s why we plan to empower the Provincial Auditor to require that institutions funded by Ontario taxpayers use their money wisely.
