Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I will not say anything more on that, but I would point out that the chief of staff position is still on the staff phone list that came out today. If in fact the position has been eliminated, we should update the phone list.
On page 1136 of unedited Hansard from Friday, Minister Handley said, "There was an amount negotiated because of the particular circumstances, in order to avoid legal liability." We have heard from Mr. Voytilla that negotiating some extra amounts are quite normal. Ms. Snider has said that in the course of negotiating the two contracts, that she did consult with labour relations. I would like to ask the Minister about the expertise that is contained within labour relations. Do we have people who are well-versed in current labour law in Canada and who follow the current state of the art, as it were, in labour law?
