Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Welcome, Ms. Robinson. It's a pleasure to see you and your associates again.
I have been following and tracking the Public Service Commission for quite a few years now, and I welcome your annual report. It's very helpful for us to see trends and patterns as well as some themes and some problems that simply don't go away, which I can point to as well. You prefaced your remarks under hiring and staffing this year with the phrase that this was an unusual year in many ways, in that many were focusing on redeployment. I see that as a diplomatic way of saying there was pandemonium in the public service with all of the cutting and hacking and slashing that went on, and the problems that all of those create in terms of redeploying people who are declared surplus but who have a right to be re-employed elsewhere.
My question has to do with the second paragraph in which you say that with all of this redeployment going on, the actual overall population covered by the act declined by 5.4%. Can you tell me how many bodies that means, how many persons' jobs that 5.4% less than the previous year represents?
