Thank you again, Irek, for being sensitive, interested and focused so much on that.
Yes, as you said, disaggregated data matters. We also have fixed targets when it comes to enhancing the diversity of our public service. As you may have noted, in the budget implementation act, 2021, we have introduced changes to the Public Service Employment Act, which will reduce not only barriers to entry but, certainly, barriers to the fulfillment of one's abilities in the public service, such as, promotion, feelings of well-being and fulfillment.
As you know, we are also going to invest, and we have invested significantly, in education and awareness opportunities and learning events. We are going to update the training with the Canada School of Public Service. We are going to set up a new federal speakers bureau on diversity and inclusion.
On senior leadership, we are going to review the appointment mechanisms. We're going to work on what may sometimes be useful external recruitment strategies. We're setting up mentorship activities to promote and support those who want to go further in their careers, and also implement the leadership development program.
It's all a work in progress. There is always more to do, but as you said, Irek, we can all, obviously, celebrate the progress we've made until now.
