A number of them were put in place.

As for those that were not acted on, there was a recommendation to launch a new national longitudinal survey of work-to-retirement transitions. That was not acted on, although we did finance a survey of older workers in 2008. It was not longitudinal, but a survey was done. There was a recommendation to establish a centre for the study of implications of the aging population. I'm not aware that this was acted on. There was a recommendation to test the viability and cost-effectiveness of a wage insurance plan. I'm not aware that this was acted on.

Those are examples of measures that were not implemented.
