Yes, in general, that's their methodology, and it's been successful over many, many decades.
If I could go back to a question, I think there was a suggestion by Mr. Dewar that Mr. Colvin's reports had been censored or edited by Mr. Lalani. I just want to say that I also edited Mr. Colvin's reports. That was part of my responsibility as ambassador, to ensure that the message was clear, that it was coherent, and that it took into account all of the various considerations and information that we had. This is a standard operating procedure. Ambassadors do it. I've done it in all three of my assignments as ambassador, and indeed, Mr. Colvin did it when he was chargé over the reports of those he oversaw during my absence.
I just wanted to clarify that point.
