Based upon some of the questions that were raised by Ms. Duncan, I'll just say this. As public servants, as you're aware, we do expect you to answer all questions put before the committee, but we know you have to balance your appearance here with the role you play as public servants in providing confidential advice to your ministers. So we will respect that you can't answer all the questions that are put before you as they relate to your relationship with the minister.
