Citizenship and Immigration committee  For the 652, those are the ones—

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I'll see if we can get it.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Yes, I'll look into obtaining that. Again, I just want to contrast in terms of visa applicants coming from abroad. The number of refusals last year was 652, so it's very low. If you look at the 76,000 cases that were referred—

Citizenship and Immigration committee  We have the breakdown by country for the 652 we recommended that CIC make a decision on, somebody who gives us reasonable grounds to believe they're not admissible based on security. I can tell you the number one country we give negative recommendations on is Russia. That's diffe

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Sure. First of all, we agree with all the recommendations of the Auditor General. I want to make that clear. The Auditor General made recommendations in four areas. The first one is around helping visa officers abroad make admissibility decisions: giving them the right tools, ma

Citizenship and Immigration committee  The recommendations that were made to us in the last report...we've started working on them right away. It'll take about year before most of them are implemented.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Sure. I'll give you an example: service standards. I gave you the example of service standards that didn't exist before and now exist, around the VIP and urgent, China five days, and then tier 1 and tier 2. We've made substantial progress also in terms of risk indicators around

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Yes. Some are actually already implemented. The review of risk indicators should be done by the summer. Regarding some of the reviews, for example, the MOUs with the security agencies, particularly the RCMP, go to early 2013. But all the other deliverables are for 2012.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  In the future, with the introduction of biometrics, ETA, and interactive advance passenger information, we are going to have a lot more information in order to know who could pose a security threat to the country. If that's what you mean by “tightening”, the answer is yes.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  If I could start, I'm looking at my numbers again—I'm the one who quoted 90%—and it was actually 73% last year, so I would correct that number. I was looking at another number. I apologize. IRPA is very clear. It says it's as practically feasible as possible that we need to remo

Citizenship and Immigration committee  No.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Maybe if I could just add to that....

Citizenship and Immigration committee  There are regimes, though, at a specific point in time in a given country for which that list does exist.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  It would be better to ask that of CSIS.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I don't know how many there are. I'd have to get back to you on that.
