  • Standing Committee on Crown And
    Chapter 48 Through its work and recommendations, the Standing Committee on Crown and Central Agencies helps the Legislative Assembly hold the Government accountable for its management of the Crown Investments Corporation of Saskatchewan (CIC) and its subsidiary corporations. The Committee does this, in part, by reviewing chapters in our Reports, and the annual reports, including related financial statements, of agencies within its subject area. At September 2019, the Committee was current in its review of chapters in our Reports related to CIC and its subsidiary corporations. In addition, the Committee already reviewed half of the 2018–19 annual reports of CIC and its subsidiaries. CIC and its subsidiary corporations' implementation of the Committee's recommendations related to our audit work remains strong. As of September 2019, the Government fully implemented 99% of the Committee's recommendations, and partially implemented the remaining recommendation. This chapter provides an overview of the role and responsibilities of the Committee, focusing on those responsibilities related to our Office's work. It also describes the overall status of the Committee's recommendations resulting from our Office's work, the status of its consideration of our work, and the status of the Committee's review of annual reports of CIC and its subsidiary corporations. In addition, it highlights the Committee’s activities related to our Office’s work since our last chapter to the Assembly about the Committee in September 2018. The Committee is one of the Assembly's four policy field committees. The Committee's assigned subject area encompasses CIC and its subsidiary corporations, supply and services (e.g., Ministry of Central Services), central government agencies (e.g., Ministry of Finance), liquor, gaming, and all other revenue-related agencies and entities.
