I would like to know what the government is doing, when it issues identification, to ensure security and oversight of the process. My question is based on the Auditor General's 2006 report, which found that the number of social insurance numbers, or SIN numbers, was far higher than Canadians would normally be expected to have been issued. Enacting legislation is all well and good, but the federal government itself has to set an example. I mentioned SIN numbers, but I could give other examples too, such as the theft of computers in Laval that provided information on 120,000 individuals. What steps is the federal government going to take in this regard?
