We've identified a number of zones in the budget document that outline the general areas where we're seeking to find efficiencies, obviously. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9165070\" data-originallang=\"en\">Some of those are programmatic elements, particularly funding envelopes that were identified in the budget as being related to things like our global innovation clusters. Those funding envelopes within the overall program are being reduced. In terms of finding efficiencies, a number of those are about internal operations. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9165071\" data-originallang=\"en\">Our continued commitment to science and research programs was made manifestly solid within the budget 2025 document, alongside the expenditure review exercise.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"9165069\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le minist\u00e8re a men\u00e9 un examen approfondi afin de d\u00e9terminer les \u00e9l\u00e9ments qui, \u00e0 son avis, lui permettraient de remplir son mandat tout en respectant l'engagement qu'a pris le gouvernement de r\u00e9duire ses d\u00e9penses. Dans le document budg\u00e9taire, nous avons retenu un certain nombre d'\u00e9l\u00e9ments qui illustrent les aspects g\u00e9n\u00e9raux pour lesquels nous cherchons \u00e0 r\u00e9aliser des gains d'efficacit\u00e9, \u00e9videmment.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9165070\" data-originallang=\"en\">Certains sont des \u00e9l\u00e9ments de programme, en particulier des enveloppes de financement qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9finies dans le budget comme \u00e9tant li\u00e9es \u00e0, par exemple, nos grappes d'innovation mondiales. Ces enveloppes de financement dans l'ensemble du programme sont revues \u00e0 la baisse. Pour ce qui est des gains d'efficacit\u00e9, on parle en partie d'op\u00e9rations internes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9165071\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Notre engagement continu en faveur des programmes de science et de recherche a \u00e9t\u00e9 clairement mis en \u00e9vidence dans le document budg\u00e9taire de 2025, parall\u00e8lement \u00e0 l'examen des d\u00e9penses.</p>"
