Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
So, Mr. Hatfield, you're delighted. You're telling us that, since the new policy was implemented in 2025, no department has fallen behind schedule and everything is going well. However, there was still one case in 2026 of a person working for Global Affairs Canada who needed a secret security clearance to do an internship and still managed to be hired.
Now, we are asking ourselves questions. If the implementation of the new policy is going so well, how can you explain to the committee members what happened in July 2026? You can't tell us that everything is going very well and that you're satisfied when there's such a glaring example of a botched investigation, poor research and a lack of communication. Call it what you will, but I don't get the impression that the implementation of your policy is going all that well because the result, in 2026, is pretty bad, isn't it?
