Good afternoon, Minister. It's a pleasure to see you again.
The tone of your speech is somewhat lighter than what we had become accustomed to with Mr. Volpe. We met with him on a number of occasions and I have to say that you seem to have the will to resolve issues. However, as you most likely know, numerous delays are a fact of life.
I don't see any mention here of the family reunification program. I believe you received several reports on this program component over the weekend. Moreover, we've asked many questions of you this week about family reunification. As you can well understand, it's a major problem. The committee has received many submissions and heard from many witnesses. It will likely take you several hours to pour over all of this material.
I'd like to know how you intend to address the issue of family reunification.
