Human Resources committee  Yes.

Human Resources committee  It will make it quite difficult. I know there was some interest—I think it was in the Conservative supplementary report—to look at the costs of the recommendations, which is of course an important thing to do. And if you're going to do that, you need to look at the “current” and

Human Resources committee  I would say no, but I also want to go on record that we're supportive of the recommendation to take off the threat of jail terms.

Human Resources committee  Yes, definitely.

I think we know that things like drivers licences and other kinds of ID don't tell us very much. I don't think at this point we even have access to any aggreg

Human Resources committee  You don't have it, okay.

Human Resources committee  My apologies. That's my fault. I do have the chart in both languages. I just didn't get it there fast enough. It's basically a bar graph. For example, it shows that for recent immigrants the child poverty rate in 1996 was 58%, in 2001 it was 49%, and in 2006 it was 48%. My point
