Thank you, Madam Chair. Okay, I have a number of different questions under lots of different items here so I'm not sure if I'll get through it in ten minutes, but maybe I'll get a second chance.

I wanted to delve into child and family services to start. So it's my understanding from reviewing the annual reports from child and family services that about 25 percent of CFS staff positions are vacant and that number is even higher when we're looking at frontline staff. Can the Minister comment on whether there's a plan to try to address those vacancies which appear to be sort of a longstanding, chronic problem. Thank you, Madam Chair.
