Prime Minister Trudeau has old parliament that work is proâ€" ceeding on an amendment to the act which will "define" the role of the auditorâ€"general, The auditorâ€"general has been asking for several years that parliament authorize the enâ€" largement of his staff and powers through an amendment of . the Financial Administration Act, with the request backed by the public accounts committee of the Commons. Henderson claims the auditorâ€" general also has a duty to point out government incompetence. Both ministers claim the Audiâ€" torâ€"General‘s job is merely to cgheck the honesty of government bookkeeping, not to question the wisdom of policy. Both ministers, I‘m sure, would like to be able to define the difference between honesty and policy themselves, rather than leaving it to Henderâ€" son‘s discretion.

The opâ€" position is betting it can make this one a real issueâ€"one that will raise a lot of public support. Such support on this issue would be in Canada‘s interest.
