I think I understand the nature of your question.
The work is done in teams at the Department of Agriculture and Agri-Food and at the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. We have sector specialists, and I can assure you that we have specialists who are very knowledgeable about the beef industry and who work almost exclusively on beef issues in our department. We also have specialists for each country.
However, when we talk about something like reopening a foreign market to beef, we're going to call on the expertise of someone who knows the industry, namely, a beef analyst. We will also have to work with colleagues from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency who are the specialists in the health requirements of the country in question. They will be able to tell us, for instance, whether they need an export certificate, a veterinary certificate or something else.
In order to manage these 300 or so market access priorities—the number varies from day to day—it is important to proceed in an orderly fashion and follow a system that sets the right priorities.
We use what we call a one-stop shop. The one-stop shop allows us to receive all requests based on a service standard and to follow up, rather than having ad hoc interactions with particular individuals. In our experience, when this is done on an ad hoc basis, monitoring and problem solving are done in a less rigorous way.
