Mr. Les Linklater (Associate Deputy Minister, Human Resources-to-Pay Stabilization, Department of Public Works and Government Services) at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

Thank you for your question.

We have a long-term plan to stabilize the payroll system, including the salaries of public servants who have been hired to support our efforts. We have also set aside funds to stabilize the system itself and to work with departments to improve data capture.
