Mr. Chair, if I may, when I made that comment I obviously hadn't had the opportunity to do a deep analysis of what had happened. I undertook that immediately. It was revealed that everyone had performed exactly according to the government guidelines on communications. The one thing I have asked to be done is that in our communications with each other, whether it's department members to department members, my office to the department, and vice versa, we make sure our communications are clear and complete.
Often as we get busy with our BlackBerrys we tend to give really short answers. Sometimes these can be misconstrued because we think the other person knows what we're talking about. So I've asked that in cases like this, if an answer is to be provided, that the whole answer be provided, not just a yes/no, but along with that the rationale as to why. Everything was done in a prudent manner, consistent with the way it's been done in the past. Unfortunately for people who are reading, people from outside who aren't aware of the procedures, the standing processes, the things we assume people know, it may not be clear to them. So we want to make sure those communications are clearer.
