Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I won't read the text in order to allow more time for questions and answers.
I just want to insist on the fact that the reviews of and the changes to the international student program were implemented by the government in 2023. It's a proactive initiative to incorporate more checks and balances in the program.
Second, the OAG found a number of areas of improvement, including the decrease in the number of students, which was the strategic objective, the implementation of a letter of verification process with educational institutions and, finally, the cancellation of the student direct stream. That program no longer exists.
I would say that we have an action plan. In my opinion, it is important that all action plans be completed by 2026 and that we take action at the appropriate time.
Second, we have committed to following up on all cases where there is a possibility of fraud. Then, when there is indeed a discrepancy or a violation of regulations, we take full responsibility for these cases.
Finally, we have taken responsibility for better managing the expiration of visas. When a visa expires, we take responsibility for following up.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I, along with my team members, welcome questions from members.
