Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Wex. Welcome to your position. I look forward to working with you on this important matter, the role the IRB has to play with the immigration system, and, in particular, the integrity of our immigration system.
You mentioned that the inventory at the moment is at 65,000 cases. It would take about two years to sort of get that processed, given the current resources you have available to you. If we were to reduce that backlog to what I think the government likes to say is a standard with respect to processing delays, which is generally around 12 months, could you tell us how much money would be required by way of an injection into the IRB for that work to be done within a 12-month period, given the current number of applications that are in place?
