Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Just before I answer the question, I would like to clarify one thing about forensic services. Only Ontario and Quebec have their own labs, not Alberta.
I agree completely, the situation with respect to civil agents is not acceptable. We noted in the report that there has been significant improvement with respect to the criminal prosecution service, which was very problematic at the time of our last audit. The department has made some significant improvements with respect to these legal agents. We are expecting it to use the same selection procedures, skills validation, follow-up on invoices and records analysis. In fact, we made this recommendation to the department, and its representatives said they agreed.
