I think there are a number of things to first note. We do spend a lot of effort in terms of providing information to ministers and to departments about vacancies so that they can be effectively managed. This means we will look at vacancy reports with some forward dating so that departments are aware and can prepare in terms of future vacancies. I cannot speak to the specific situation in one or more of the administrative tribunals over time. There are often posted vacancies. We usually have very good uptake in terms of candidacies. There may be regional or location differences potentially. Sometimes there are specific locations that need to be filled and there may not be candidates there.
I'm not saying that is the case in the Parole Board, but it is one thing that might be a factor. We do work very assiduously to make sure that.... This is something that I think we have learned in terms of the Auditor General's report, that it does require a lot of information being available. The more attention we pay to future vacancies and the more attention we pay to timely processes, then we can avoid those situations where there are vacancies.
One other point I would note is that sometimes there are vacancies listed on our website—they may show up there—that are potential positions on particular tribunals or organizations, and the organization itself may feel that those are not necessary to fill at that point in time given caseload demands or whatever their operational requirements are. There may sometimes be cases like that.
