Ms. Shepherd, when I say it is no secret, I mean it is known within Parliament. That is something you hear within the House walls. Without necessarily naming a specific example, I think this is something you may want to look into because, in your report, you say you are going to continue “to invest significant resources to maintain and improve the Registry of Lobbyists.” This is a well-known occurrence.
On another note, your report on plans and priorities refers to bringing together the strategic planning and corporate functions under the responsibility of the new deputy commissioner. But you do not mention it in your report. You said that Mr. Leblanc—and I want to congratulate him on his appointment—will carry out administrative functions. But administrative functions and strategic planning are two things. So what will Mr. Leblanc work on exactly?
