NOTE:

The 2018 Spring Report 1 of the Auditor General of Canada — Building and Implementing the Phoenix Pay System:  The Office of the Auditor General examined whether the Phoenix pay system was fully tested, would deliver the functions needed to pay federal employees, was secure, and would protect employees’ private information. We also examined whether Public Services and Procurement Canada adequately supported selected departments and agencies in their move to Phoenix.
