Thank you.
It's good to be back here after an absence of quite a number of years.
Minister, you said that you're going to reduce and that there's a plan for a reduction of full-time equivalents. The public service right now, at least since September 2025, was down to 346,000 heading for a goal of 330,000. Much of the reduction that you were to make has already occurred. You have a few more to go, you said, mostly through voluntary reductions.
Why have you refused to provide the Parliamentary Budget Officer, and through him, parliamentarians, information to help us understand the personnel reductions that you have planned?
