Madam Chair, the work should have been done when the Auditor General arrived. We should have had an answer to explain that many students had changed schools. We should have verified this fact and had this figure in a timely manner.
So, to add to the discussion, I would say that several of these steps were aimed at eliminating cases where non-compliance was linked to missing documents. However, there are now genuine cases of non-compliance that need to be investigated. Regarding the 2,000 cases, our intention is to investigate all cases of fraud. There should be no artificial limit on the number of cases that are genuine instances of fraud or that involve people remaining in the country after their visas have expired. There should therefore be better management of the raw figures and more proactive action on the figures that are truly unobservable.
