I thank Ms Gordon. Mr. Duggan said the Department has engaged in an intensive nationwide inspection and compliance campaign and that it has this year increased resources in scope section and set up a new unit called the employment status inspection unit. That is all positive and to be welcomed. I would like him to give the committee an understanding of the numbers of people involved. How many staff are assigned to either the new unit or the scope section? How many cases have been determined this year compared to last year? Since the Department has increased resources, what are we seeing?
