The comment made by the Auditor General makes reference to how it is done by our sister organization, CBP in the United States, which goes to that additional step we have not put in place.
Our program was developed in pre-9/11 mode. We admit that we could have a tighter program. Actually what we've done is this. I went to Brussels with our colleague from the U.S. and we sold to the whole community of border organizations across the world a new approach to trade facilitation and a way to secure trade around the world, which included something called the authorized economic operator. So we have developed some sort of a standard for that very business.
I'm pleased to report that in June this year we will have achieved mutual recognition with the United States. We will be the first or second one to have achieved this. Therefore, our program will be exactly the same as the U.S. C-TPAT program. The extent to which verification will be made before an importer can be put on that list and be stamped as fit for C-TPAT will be the exact same thing on both sides. I agree, it has required a lot of action on our part to reach that point, but we're going to be able to celebrate that mutual recognition in June. They will accept our verification.
