Thank you for the question, Madam Chair.
First of all, I would like to say that the agency and the board have taken fiscal management of the agency very seriously from the beginning. That is exactly why we have spent less than 50% of our allocated budget in all of the years we have been in existence.
We do not merely have a mandate for licensing, which is part of the piece we're unable to fulfill. We have a mandate for many other activities in the agency, and those activities have to do with ensuring that the prohibitions in force are followed up and ensuring that section 8--consent to use--regulations are followed up and being utilized appropriately by the field.
As well, there is a major mandate in outreach to bring the community of practice along so they are ready and prepared. We also have a mandate for education of the public, for international liaisons, and for making sure that we are in tune with what is happening in this area across the world.
