I'm just going to stay on that HR issue, because I know that it's a DND issue generally, and especially with shipbuilding. Given the number of civilian workers at the Department of National Defence, how much has the contracting out of defence work contributed to the delays? In other words, how much of the delay is due to hiring temporary workers and contract workers as opposed to having a properly staffed public service?
