—but I understand you have presented to this committee before, Mr. Platsis, on this specific study. I went to the evidence of March 15 when you were here and pulled out some questions I have from looking at your testimony.
You mentioned that the Auditor General made numerous recommendations with regard to the improvements of the integrity and security of our immigration system. He revealed that officers have no idea who should be coming to Canada, as they do not have enough specific data to make an assessment on admissibility. Additionally, there is a lack of performance reviews, guidance, and training.
While biometrics may assist with the information collection, these recommendations by the Auditor General are not addressed. Officers may still not be administering the current laws accordingly, with little oversight.
You stated on March 15:
The situation becomes even more daunting because of inadequate ongoing training and an overreliance on technology, which risks both increased danger and complacent behaviour.
What human resource improvements should accompany the implementation of biometrics, if there were to be future legislative changes?
