Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

I'd like to thank the witnesses for being with us today.

The white paper was published by the department responsible for official languages. For several years, the Fédération des communautés francophones et acadienne du Canada, or FCFA, has been calling for a central agency to have greater responsibility for the Official Languages Act so that it is stronger.

I don't know who to direct my question to.

Could one of you explain how the Treasury Board can act as a central agency to strengthen the Official Languages Act?
