Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Barrados, I have three questions for you, including one very technical question. On page 5 of your presentation, you say that operating on a cost-recovery basis for counselling services has its risks. Last year, your revenues rose to $11 million. I would describe that revenue as variable, since it can be as low as $5 million in a given year. Perhaps that is what you are trying to tell us.
What I am more interested in is the quality of labour relations in the public service. Does the commission look at the quality of labour relations on a regular basis? I have some serious doubts about the quality of labour relations in certain sectors. I have dealings with certain offices where about 100 to 150 public servants work, most of whom wish to leave because of poor labour relations. I could give concrete examples.
Does the Public Service Commission ask public servants to complete anonymous questionnaires, to find out how they feel and what is going on in the various sectors, and to monitor the quality of labour relations?
