Planning Analysis Reporting<br />
The team conducted the work stream <strong>review</strong> in three phases: planning, analysis, and <strong>report</strong>ing.<br />
Planning: During the planning phase, the team conducted a <strong>review</strong> of external and internal<br />
documentation to appropriately align the assessment criteria with the organization. To provide a sound<br />
base for the assessment of governance, we looked to leading guidance on public sector governance<br />
and oversight, and developed the following assessment criteria for the work stream:<br />

Oversight and<br />
responsibilities<br />
Description of criteria<br />

adequate oversight roles and responsibilities, a clear mandate to carry<br />

accordingly.<br />
Independence<br />
The extent to which the Board of Trustees has clearly established<br />
independence requirements for its members to manage real and<br />
perceived conflicts of interest; and the extent to which it operates<br />
