I'm sorry. I should have let you read it out before I interjected. Regarding the transcripts of in camera meetings, I oppose destroying documents and having a direction at the beginning of this committee to destroy documents of in camera meetings.
I want to reiterate the nature of this committee and the ability for us to provide a blueprint and detailed information on the spirit of discussions to those who, perhaps at a future date, may be seeking guidance from previous committees. I know how helpful it would have been for us if we had that access. That underscores and understands that if we were to maintain these documents, we would be doing so knowing that those in future proceedings would also have to have the kind of security clearance that would be necessary.
I suggest that we delete “that the transcripts be destroyed when the committee ceases to exist”, given the unique nature of this and holding those documents in trust for future contemplation. I would also add “that the analysts assigned to the committee also have access to in camera transcripts”.
