Good morning, Mr. Mayrand. Good morning to all your team.
I am looking at your budgeted expenditures. If I set aside election expenses, I see that most of the amounts in the main estimates are for staff. You have $21 million for employees, plus $4 million for contributions to their benefits, which makes a total of $25 million. You say that you have 330 full-time employees. I would like a much more detailed breakdown.
I understand that you are going to develop a human resources plan for next year, but are you able to tell me how many employees will be retiring in the next five years? What is your staff profile? How many bilingual positions do you presently have? Do you have any problems on that front?
Turning to employee training, what part of the budget do you devote to that each year? What about the mentoring of your employees, what about their career planning, their mobility? Is your staff representative? How many men and how many women do you have. There was a very concrete plan to have visible minorities all through the public service. I know that you represent a government-mandated agency.
Can you tell us about your employees?
