I'll come back to you, Mr. Yalkin.
Thank you for explaining the departmental plans. Of course, I understand the nature of them. They are to set priorities. They are to set strategic outcomes, to set programs and to set expected results covering the next three years. That's the description that accompanies them, anyway, so thank you. I'm aware.
When we talk about goal setting, we shouldn't be talking about setting a goal that puts us behind from the year in which we're setting them. Goals should be about making things better.
You talked about a goal being the floor and then trying to exceed that. I understand, which is why I'm confused. Your numbers, the numbers in the department for those who belong to minority groups and those who are women were actually decently high in 2019 and 2020. For minority groups it was 11.5%. For women it was 51.1%. Then the targets that were set for the next year were actually lower than where they were at, and then lower yet. The benchmark continues to be dropped rather than heightened, rather than set higher. I'm confused by that.
