The statement refers to a 2022 output target of 50%. I saw it a little while ago but I cannot see it now. The low output target is a concern. Perhaps the Minister could give the metrics for the output target anticipated for 2022.

An issue that carries through across the various headings is cybersecurity. I have a general question on that, especially as it relates to passports but also as it relates to everything in foreign affairs. What analysis has been carried out on our systems? Are we assured that the proper protections are in place, in particular in consular services and diplomatic missions across the world? That is a general question that applies across all the different headings.
