Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you for coming in front of us, Mr. Pickard.
I want to take you back on this a little bit more if you could share some thoughts. As we mentioned, the review of Canada's participation in the AIIB has been tasked to the Department of Finance.
I would like you to maybe help us out a little further to explain your interaction with the department as part of the review process, and also to give us your view on the importance of this review being led by non-partisan professional public servants.
