The Chair Liberal Tom Wappel

My question is that he specifically asked for “Afghanistan 2006”. As far as I can read from the chronology, your response was, “If Requester wants Division”—and I presume that means GHH—“to search for each report”—and I don't know what you mean by “each report”, as he asked for “Afghanistan 2006”—“it would take 'hundreds' of hours to locate all the reports”.

I don't understand what your response was, when it was clear that Mr. Esau was then looking for “Afghanistan 2006”. Why didn't you just give it to him?
