Thank you, Commissioner.
We do have the financial resources. We have just reprofiled $5 million into the FLS budget, and those funds are going to be used to bring the Edmonton facility up to a standard where it can take on DNA analysis and hire the additional 70 people.
Regarding the turnaround time and the backlog, I think what the Auditor General is telling us is that we're too slow; we need to be quicker. It's more about getting the cases delivered to the police officers in the field when and as they're required. While the commissioner mentioned the 45- and the 60- and the 90-day scenarios, that's the model we have put together, which has yet to be validated.
As she said in her opening statements, we have met with the heads of prosecutions from across the country. We are now dealing with the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, and we will be meeting with a committee of that association at their annual convention in August. We are going to welcome any input they have, and they may want us to adjust those dates. So while they're presented here today, they're not yet cast in stone and won't be until they are endorsed by the client community.
