Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you to the officials for being with us today on this very important topic.

I'll start with immigration, on the 2018 removal of the requirement for police clearance certificates from the country of origin. Pakistan was one of those countries. Is there consideration being given by the department to reinstating the requirement—not the option, but that it be required for Pakistan and others that may have been impacted by the 2018 change?

Is that being considered by the department?
