Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Good afternoon, Dr. Zinger and Ms. Kingsley.

I'd like to talk about the part relating to community supervision. In your report, you state, “According to 2016-17 numbers, the total number of offenders on community supervision, 8,886, is at its highest point in over a decade”.

Has the Correctional Service of Canada provided you with answers and explanations concerning the lack of funding for community supervision programs?
