Yes and the government is acting quickly, Mr. Speaker.
We have certainly brought to the attention of the deputy ministers in all departments that they are to get the proper information to all employees so that the policies of the government are followed.
It is interesting to note that 91 per cent of public servants would report a significant fraud or illegal activity and that 78 per cent of public servants recognize there are very high ethics within their departments and within the operations of the government.
The vast majority understands the code. They read the code. They are given it. They all sign in writing that they have read it and fully understand it.
We will continue to ensure that the code is followed and that the highest ethical standards are followed both in the public service and in the government itself.
