Thank you, Madam Chair, and thank you to each of the witnesses for appearing today.
In the report tabled, the 2005-06 report, in terms of the movement between the public service and ministers' offices, you indicate that there are approximately 100 public service employees who went to work in a minister's office without a break in service and then subsequently returned. And then you went on to highlight the fact that there were two situations where the potential for abuse was noted.
I'm just wondering, if you push this back now beyond the 10 years that your report indicates, do you expect the numbers per year to be roughly average, roughly 10 per year, or do you expect a bulge in that?
And then secondly, do you feel that you have the resources to complete your report, as you indicated, hopefully by January? I assume that each member of this committee would receive a report of your findings subsequent to that investigation.
