The Speaker delivered the following ruling:-

On Tuesday, June 26, 2001, the Member for Windsor-St. Clair raised a point of privilege concerning recent consideration by the Board of Internal Economy of the spending Estimates of the Office of the Provincial Auditor. The Minister of Labour (Mr. Stockwell), the Member for Niagara Centre (Mr. Kormos), the Member for Thunder Bay-Atikokan (Mrs. McLeod), the Government House Leader (Mrs. Ecker), and the Member for Don Valley East (Mr. Caplan) also made submissions.

The Member refers to a letter written by the Provincial Auditor on the subject of his office's annual budget, wherein the Auditor states "[a]s a servant of the Legislative Assembly and the Public Accounts Committee, I consider the inadequate funding provided as interfering with my office's ability to fulfill its responsibilities under the Audit Act in a timely manner and is counterproductive to good accountability."

The Member for Windsor-St. Clair alleges that this statement amounts to a clear indication that the "Government of Ontario has perpetrated a contempt of this Legislature by impeding and obstructing an officer of this House, the Provincial Auditor."

At the outset, let me describe the system as it exists for review and approval of the Provincial Auditor's estimates. The Legislative Assembly Act, in Section 87, creates the Board of Internal Economy, which is a creature of this Assembly and which has membership drawn from all of the 3 Party caucuses in this House. It oversees and collectively makes decisions about the management and administration of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario.

This same Board of Internal Economy is statutorily authorized by Section 29(2) of the Audit Act, the governing legislation of the Provincial Auditor, to "review and may alter as it considers proper the estimates presented by the Auditor, and the chair of the Board shall cause the estimates as altered by the Board to be laid before the Assembly and the Assembly shall refer the estimates laid before it to a committee of the Assembly for review."

While the Executive is represented on the Board of Internal Economy, at no point is the legal entity of the Government of Ontario involved in this process. The Office of the Assembly and its governance structure, the Board of Internal Economy, are statutorily and factually separate and independent from the Government of Ontario. It is therefore, in effect, a practical impossibility for the Government of Ontario, having no involvement in this process, to somehow be seen to be a body that is obstructing this process.

I therefore do not find that the Government of Ontario, as alleged by the Member for Windsor-St. Clair, has, as he put it, perpetrated a contempt on this Legislature.

As for the statements of the Provincial Auditor, he is to be commended for so strenuously protecting the interests of his office and for vigorously defending and advocating for what he sees as the genuine requirements necessary to fulfill the functions for which he was appointed by this Legislature. The letter he provided on this issue, referred to by the Member for Windsor-St. Clair, cannot be described as anything but forceful.

I will, however, express reservations about its more intemperate contents and will simply reiterate that the Board of Internal Economy has, and claims, the right to determine the budget appropriation for the Office of the Provincial Auditor, subject to ultimate approval by this very Assembly. The Board of Internal Economy is seized with serving the public interest in this regard and with providing the Provincial Auditor - and all the parliamentary officers - with the tools that it determines he needs to perform his functions. The Board's valid determination in this regard is final and while issue may be taken with its decision, the Board has and asserts its right to make such decisions. Furthermore, with respect to the current case regarding the Provincial Auditor's budget submission, that decision has not yet been made by the Board.

Finally, I can only observe how circular and illogical the argument becomes that somehow this process I have described has resulted in a contempt having been perpetrated on the Assembly, since it is the Assembly itself that has created, approved, participated in, and followed this process. It is not a matter of privilege for the Board to carry out its responsibilities. The Legislature can hardly be in contempt of itself; the Assembly is master of its affairs and to the extent described here, master of its parliamentary officers, which it appoints. It is not the other way around.
