Mr. Robert Watt:

It is being lead and rolled out from from Mr. Lowry's office. Most Departments now use the e-PQ system and the e-submissions system. We are rolling-out the e-correspondence system. It was introduced this week in our Department. The old correspondence system was based on Lotus Notes. The new system will be based on Word SharePoint which is more efficient. We could at some future date make a five or ten-minute presentation. Members might be interested in seeing how this important system works.
