The Ontario government is putting several large public agencies under the microscope, launching reviews that will look at efficiency and productivity.
Premier Doug Ford has said he told them to pay back “every single penny,” but Bethlenfalvy today could not say if that has happened.
Bethlenfalvy says the province is reviewing eight agencies starting this summer with an eye to ensuring their spending is sustainable.
He suggested the government has given the agencies some figures of savings it would like to see, but he did not share those publicly.
The agencies being reviewed are: Metrolinx, Workplace Safety and Insurance Board, Supply Ontario, Liquor Control Board of Ontario, Ontario Cannabis Retail Corporation, Legal Aid Ontario, Agricorp, and the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario.
