Okay, thank you. I understand what you are saying.
In his last report, the Commissioner of Official Languages noted that some 800 so-called bilingual positions were held by unilingual employees. It goes without saying that the majority of these unilingual employees were English speakers.
While it might not be directly related to your area of responsibility, I would nonetheless like to point out that only 47% of the designated bilingual positions in the Canadian Forces are held by bilingual employees. There is a problem and it needs to be addressed.
You spoke about employee training. Our committee is obviously interested in language issues relating to training. Are you responsible for ensuring that employees can receive training in the language of their choice during the course of their working day?
