Thank you very much for having me.
I am Carl Trottier, the executive director of strategic compensation management at the Treasury Board Secretariat.
Before you today on division 24 are three amendments to the CRA Act. The first one is to require that CRA get Governor in Council approval prior to settling a negotiated settlement. The second requires that a bargaining mandate be obtained by the President of the Treasury Board before negotiating a mandate. The third is that they also come to the President of the Treasury Board on any major changes to their HR policies that could also have some cost implications.
