Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, when employees inform us that they will be retiring or transferring or leaving this government for whatever reason, there are forms that have to be filled out and sent in. From time to time, we find, unfortunately, that some forms are omitted or that the department the staff member was working for filled out some portion in error and caused a delay in the schedule that has been identified.
As I stated, we are working on improving the system. That is why corporate human resource service centres were established to create a better environment for employees. Through that initial plan putting everybody together and finding the office space, that has added to some of the backlog, but we are now working at clearing up that backlog and trying to ensure that employees don't have to wait for these long delays. Thank you.
