Thank you, Mr. Speaker. To the Minister of Personnel. Mr. Speaker, I'd like to ask the Minister whether or not particularly in my riding, I know at times the Personnel department would allow representation and participation from the band or from the Metis with respect to the hiring process of government when they're hiring key positions at the senior level or at other levels within the government. Sometimes they allow for this participation. It appears though not to be consistent.
I would like to ask the Minister of Personnel whether or not he would consider active participation from the band and/or the Metis to assist in the hiring process, particularly for key positions at the regional level. Thank you.
