Recently passed legislation will make it easier for the province to keep tabs on the costs associated with public inquiries.

Attorney General Chris Bentley told The Canadian Press this week he's "concerned about cost" when it comes to public inquiries.

"We get what we need in the way we need it as quickly as we need it at a cost that we're aware of early on in the process," Bentley told CP.

The news comes ahead of the release of the Cornwall Public Inquiry's final report, set to be delivered Tuesday.

The Cornwall Public Inquiry was the most expensive in Canadian history, estimated to cost $50 million.
