Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I have one quick question.

When the Auditor General was before another committee of ours some time ago she was saying that one of her biggest challenges was the private sector raiding her auditors and paying them substantial salaries. They're in high demand right now. I'm wondering if you have that issue with your specialists.

Secondly, how do you set your salary structure at that level? Do you look at the private sector and increase accordingly when that kind of thing happens?
