Yes, Mr. Hardy, I know you asked that question earlier and I wasn't able to answer it. I'll try to provide a succinct reply now.
We did have to increase our staff complement, but let's keep that in perspective: We increased it from two to four. We are able, with the two full-time registry officers that we have, to monitor activity in the registry and flag potential issues of non-compliance.
We also make use of our investigators, and that's why I am the Information and Privacy Commissioner and the Registrar of Lobbyists. In my job as Information and Privacy Commissioner, I have a range of investigators, and those investigators can do double duty and act as investigators on the LTA matters.
Yes, we've had to only very moderately increase our staff complement, but, through creativity, have been able to deal with this regulatory oversight mandate efficiently.
