I think that's correct, Mr. Chairman.
The basic control mechanism, other than the constitutional ones, is that the instructions that are issued by the minister have to be consistent with the annual plan the government tables in the House of Commons. That is the plan that indicates each year how many people are going to be admitted to Canada in the three categories of federal skilled workers, family reunification, and humanitarian entries. This bill will not change that at all. The annual plan, which sets out the numbers the department is to bring in and the various categories, remains absolutely the same. What this bill says is that the minister, when she issues instructions, has to take this annual plan, which is tabled in Parliament, into account. It has to be consistent with that plan.
