I am concerned about keeping expertise internal because that's the best way to provide services. But that's our opinion.

We talked about potential savings of $45 million to $293 million. I'll be cautious and use the amount of $45 million. I don't tend to get enthusiastic when potential savings in major reforms like that are involved.

How many job losses in the federal public service does this represent? How many people risk losing their job?
