Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I'm aware of the file that the Member has spoken of and I can inform him, and I think he's aware, that that file has been taken care of and information has been sent out. As for why it took 13 calls, I can't speak to that specifically. I haven't asked for that information from the department. I was aware that the file was being looked at and being dealt with. Unfortunately, as I was saying, as a result of creating the human resource service centres, we have found a large backlog of files that were not being dealt with when all departments had control of

those areas. We are now putting in the resources towards catching up with that backlog so that we can ensure employees are being dealt with in a fair and responsible manner. Thank you.
