Okay.

I noticed that between 2010 and 2014 there's going to be a decrease of 1,112 FTEs. The minister was up in the House last week indicating that part of that decrease in FTEs would be a result of temporary hires to deal with employment insurance claims processing. But the employment insurance claims have stayed relatively high. So I wonder if there's going to be a change in this planned reduction in FTEs.
