I would like to interject before you get started, Jason. I'm not satisfied that this contradiction has been addressed.

Mr. Watson, you opened up by saying that the Access to Information Act is silent on this issue, yet I read Mr. Leadbeater to say that with respect to personal information what could be more personal than a person's name? Section 19 of the Access to Information Act says that you won't disclose a document that has personal information.

Mr. Leadbeater, do you read the Access to Information Act to have a prohibition about disclosing the applicant's name?
