Based on projected retirements, which you can never completely predict, the average growth in the government, which is small now, and projected departures, the plan we'll distribute to all members gives a five-year projection out from 2006 to 2011. In the EX category, we calculated 34 new hires we needed to fill for this past year--so that's new people joining the EX category--and 42 for next fiscal year.
This past year, we undertook this particular process, alluded to in Mr. Edwards' remarks, of looking at people who were already acting and performing at level, and we have made 45 appointments and 15 more. So we've overachieved that target, and we're taking a harder look at the number of acting assignments.
For next year we have a goal of 42. We'll be revising these numbers based on our iteration.
