Ms. Barrados, as president of the Public Service Commission of Canada, you have created a website through which officials can find staff. The matter has been raised because a reporter wrote in the paper that the government's requests for staff from private firms were excessive.
The situation you are describing is extremely serious. What can be done? You have created a website that allows people to find staff and you are sure that it has very precise parameters. Can we, as a committee, tell the government that it has to stop calling on private agencies as a way to finding staff? Can we instead say that it must choose this website, that I believe costs $7 million per year, and that can make sure that the Public Service Employment Act is observed?
