Mr. Chair, to date the secretariat does have the principal role of supporting the special adviser. It also has the mandate to integrate further in an intersectional thinking way, complementing gender-based analysis, for example, and our approach in federal government.
In the beginning, one of the main priorities for the secretariat was to advance the apology, which the Prime Minister delivered in the House of Commons on November 27. It was also involved in the settlement of a legal case. Those two moved forward.
