Thank you, Mr. Chair.

In 2017 the IRB saw that record number of asylum claims at 47,000. It jumped to almost 49,000 on March 31 of this year.

Mr. Vulpe, what are the current wait times for IRB hearings to be scheduled for new applicants? If I could follow up on that, what's the current refusal rate for the Nigerian applicants?
