Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This department has already made decisions with regard to the legal interpreter/translator programs. For example, the Minister mentioned two positions that were cut. I know there are positions that have not been filled yet and are left vacant. So there are decisions already made in how they are going to deal with these cuts. What is the purpose of the firm Avery Cooper conducting a review of all interpreter/translator programs in the government? I know the government has put aside $45,000 to do this work. Before the review is done or any recommendations are put forward by this review group, the government departments have already made decisions to make cuts in some key areas. What is the purpose of this review? Thank you.
