Mr. Chairman, there is no companion document.

I have a hunch--I'll just go out on a limb here--that if there was any government document that gave support for the claim of a $12.5 million contribution, maybe the previous government would have released it.

The Chair Conservative Gary Schellenberger

With that, we will recess.

We'll come back in about five minutes, because this meeting will be over at 12:30.
