Ms. d'Auray, allow me to make a comment.
The excuse that I am hearing, in part, is that the act does not contain any date. The legislation calls for the implementation of new policies, and it is regrettable to hear that there is no date. I understand, but at a certain point, one does have to exercise judgment. The act does not state that you must implement a policy by a certain date, but it does require you to do so. Today, three years later, still nothing has been done.
Moving on, I have a question for Ms. Meredith. The following is stated on page 2 of your opening remarks:
Our attention is very focused on these issues, especially since we are developing a new values and ethics code for the public sector and a new policy on conflict of interest and post-employment, which are expected to come into effect in spring 2011.
Ms. Meredith, could you tell me which government, and in what year, required that those tools be implemented in 2011?
