I have two follow-up questions from that.

One is about removal. CBSA has told us—or a report read—that it takes them about 23 days from the time that a case is referred to them until they actually remove the individual. Can you tell us how long it takes CIC to refer a case to CBSA?

The other question that I wanted to ask you was: what is the actual average percentage of refugee applications that come in and the percentage of success rates?
