For our office, the important element that we are still dealing with, and will be dealing with for a little while, is the comparative salaries of people doing similar functions in the public service. If we were to pay a particular group of employees who were performing a particular function more, I think it would have an impact on the rest of the public service, and likewise the other way: If the public service pays more, then it's going to affect us even though we have a different classification level.
Again, my colleague from the Treasury Board Secretariat might be in a good position to speak to that.
