Obviously, having additional staff helps us run better. We can see it in the results I distributed to the committee. We've always said this. A certain number of employees is needed to process the files. As I said at the start of my presentation, we were trying to reduce the inventory. It's apparent that, this year, we're starting to be able to reduce the inventory.
In theory, we could likely request funding to hire 100 additional people to conduct investigations. However, it's not realistic. Federal institutions must be able to respond to the results of our investigations.
There are currently fewer outstanding files. At the same time, we're still receiving responses from government institutions. We now have a good balance. We've hit our stride when it comes to the balance between government institutions and investigations and the institutions' capacity to respond not only to the investigations, but also to access to information requests.
