I thank the Senator and I thank the witnesses for their presentations, which were a real eye-opener. I am glad that the final question from the Senator allowed us to hear their thoughts on the legislation that is coming. Reference was made to the fact that three Ministers agreed that there was a shortage of resources for recruitment. What is the blockage there? Why did previous Ministers not act on what the witnesses spoke at length about today, in terms of issues with recruitment? What is the blockage?
