Yes, that's it, a certificate recommending the nomination, as you said, Mr. Chair.
In this regard, it is our duty to examine her CV, her skills and also her ability to perform the duties of this post, this role. The new act requires that officers of Parliament be bilingual. Hence the position of Commissioner of Official Languages must be filled by a bilingual person. We were informed that the other candidates underwent a language test. That language test was even a prerequisite to continuing with the process. Since that requirement was made of the other candidates, we simply want to ensure that the same rules were applied to Ms. Meilleur, that she went through the same process as all of the others, and that things were done normally. We are only asking her for proof. A senator asked her about this yesterday, and she replied that she had indeed taken an official language test, and had passed it. Consequently we are simply asking her to produce that certificate, since she mentioned that she had passed the test. It would be normal, I think, to add that to her CV, because this is part of our examination of her skills.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
