Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I have a question regarding 2-18 under Cabinet Secretariat, corporate human resource services, where the Executive is responsible for developing and monitoring the government's recruiting policy, Affirmative Action Policy and other government-wide human resource policies; provides specialist training and advice to government departments, boards and agencies on human resource planning and staff development; and supports internal communication processes.

It is an area with a wide degree of responsibility, especially with our Affirmative Action Policy of this government, to try and get a representative work force, yet we see, except for a few departments, that the affirmative action candidates are a lot lower within the departments and are not representative of the population.

I would like to ask the Minister if all departments work from the same song sheet? By that, I mean is there one interpretation of the Affirmative Action Policy used by all departments consistently? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
