Soraya Martinez Ferrada at the Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities Committee

Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I thank the witnesses for participating in today's meeting.

I understand your fears, questions, concerns and recommendations on division 32, but I would like to discuss with you divisions 26 and 27 of part 5. I would like to know why you think legislative amendments are necessary, how those amendments will affect the programs currently provided under part II of the Employment Insurance Act and why eligibility needs to be expanded.

I don't know who would like to answer first, Mr. Vachon, Mr. Beauregard or Ms. Nord.

Mr. Beauregard, go ahead.
