Statement made on 10 February 2009 by Senator Maria Chaput
Hon. Maria Chaput:
Honourable senators, my question is for the Leader of the Government in the Senate. The Canada Public Service Agency is about to be merged with and integrated into the Treasury Board Secretariat, and will now be known as the Office of the Chief Human Resources Officer. The agency had official language-related responsibilities, including recruitment and language training.
Will the new office assume these official language-related responsibilities?
The Canada School of Public Service will continue its sole mandate of offering training and professional development services to the public service. How will the relationship between the school and the new office be defined, and how will they share the responsibilities for official languages?
