Thank you, Madam Chair. I’m going to have a go at responding to as many of these as possible, then have the officials also assist me in that.
Regional Recruitment is a good program. I did anticipate more uptake. We are making some changes that the deputy minister is just going to touch on that we think will improve the uptake as a result of the recent changes that we’re going to be making to that program. Right now we’ve appointed three people and we’re in the process of various
stages of hiring six more people and we’re looking at a total of 16 departmental applications. When we are able to bring people into all of these positions, we should have 16 people under the Regional Recruitment Program.
On the Safe Disclosure Memorandum of Agreement between ourselves and the union, since the agreement has come into effect, which was, I guess, back on April 1, 2013, we’ve had only one person… There has been just one disclosure, which is under review. We’re not sure as to why, but there is not an uptake. We could probably give an opinion on that as well.
For other recruiting processes and the safety, I would like to ask the deputy minister to respond to those.
