Okay. Well, the last part of the question, Mr. Chairman, should really be directed to governments and not to me. As I indicated in my opening remarks, questions about governance of the RCMP and certainly questions about how complaints are dealt with.... The RCMP certainly has an interest, but we are not the decision-makers.
We're very supportive of independent investigations. We have gotten our own house in order by the adoption of our policy earlier this year on external investigations or review. That policy requires us to refer investigations of serious incidents to independent agencies where they exist. Unfortunately, they don't exist in every jurisdiction across the country, which is why we're also on record, as I said in my opening remarks, as urging governments to set up such independent agencies.
So if we could be completely relieved of the obligation—because it is an obligation—of investigations into our employees, I think that would be a good thing from the RCMP's perspective, and certainly from mine personally. We have not been relieved of that obligation universally, which is why we have in place the policy that we have.
