Auditor General of New Brunswick

December 09, 2025

FREDERICTON (GNB) – In his report tabled today at the legislative assembly, auditor general Paul Martin discussed the implementation rates of recommendations pertaining to prior years’ performance reports.

“This report is a tool for the public accounts committee and the public to hold government accountable for acting on our recommendations,” said Martin.

This year’s report includes a followup on performance report recommendations from 2021 to 2023.

Martin was pleased that departments have implemented 100 per cent of the 2021 recommendations and 83 per cent of the 2022 recommendations. However, only 32 per cent of the 2023 recommendations have been implemented.

“As many of the outstanding recommendations relate to emergency response preparation, we will continue to follow up to ensure our recommendations are adopted,” said Martin.

The followup report is available on the Office of the Auditor General’s website.
