Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you very much for being here with us, Commissioner. In the interest of transparency, I have to say that I know one of your assistant commissioners very well. He is a good person and I want to say hello to him. I do not know the other assistant commissioner as well.
You sent a letter to the committee asking us to study bilingualism in the senior ranks of the public service, which is in fact why you are here today.
I remember how things were 10 or 15 years ago, and I think you referred to it: when a senior official was hired, they were sent for French training. Who is responsible for confirming that the official is truly bilingual after completing that training? Is there any follow-up in the senior public service, in your experience, or rather was the person sent for training and there was no follow-up once they came back?
