Mr. Des Delaney:

This issue falls under sections 13 and 14 of the International Protection Act. Our Department, along with the IPO and the Department of Justice, is having a series of core group meetings. We are looking at that specific assessment process. The Department of Justice and the IPO are presenting a paper to the core group meeting for review next week. We are making considerable progress on the issues raised with regard to age assessments.
